Technically I guess that the backgrounds and stuff is just Finder folder configuration, but for it to "work" the folder would have to automatically open, and I don't think you can make Safari (or the other browsers) do that for you when it comes to folders inside Zip files or Internet Enabled DMGs. I could be wrong though.

Somehow Finder obliterates the settings for an unzipped folder, even if I use StuffIt and tell it to put the .DS_Stores in the archive. It just doesn't work the same somehow. (Plus you can't have license agreements in there.) Fighting Finder to script the appearance of the disk image is a headache on it's own; I'd rather skip the nonsense to try to force Finder into something it doesn't want to do at all.


Thanks for all of the responses on and off list.
