Deploy application resource files with WSP

Question

Hi,

I am trying to use Sharepoint solution installer to package and deploy my wsp file. My question is how do I deploy the images associated with my webpart? Do I use setup.exe.config (part of Sharepoint solution installer) [http://www.codeplex.com/sharepointinstaller] or do I do this within my WSP template project itself then use the WSP built from that?

Many Thanks,

You can do this within a WSP project template by creating the right folder structure, when the WSP is built it will add the required entries into the manifest.xml generated within the WSP file.
