Are the images large, or are there many of them? I'm not an expert at 
this issue, but for miscellaneous graphics I'm planning to include a 
graphics folder that needs to be copied to the hard drive with the 
application-- no graphics folder, no working application.

In a general sense, does anyone see a problem with that? The obvious 
one is that if some of the graphics files are deleted, the 
application will look funny. I should put a check at startup that 
looks for all the image files, and complains if some aren't there.

Regards,

Geoff
