5. My app is distributed in tz.gz format, but Ive also seen .dmg formats. What is the preferred format and if it is .dmg how do I go about creating one.

You can use various tools to create DMGs. The manual GUI way is to use Disk Utility to create the image and then copy files onto it in the Finder.
Ive created a disk image, and used Disk Utility to convert it into a compressed disk image. Ive uploaded it to my website and downloaded it ok. I just have one question although it is already compressed are disk images distributed as .dmg or are they wrapped in to zip format, as I have seen both.

thanks paul
