Embedding a picture into a disk image

All,

I seem to remember an article on how one can embed a custom grahic in a disk image. We are doing a drag-install for one of our cocoa apps and want to have a set of instructions appear as the background of our disk image (basically the same thing as was done with the OmniWeb .dmg).

Initial searches have come up blank and the DiskCopy app doesn't seem to have such a feature. Using Finder, one can select an image to use for the .dmg window's background, but it appears that only a reference is being stored in the .dmg rather than a copy of the graphic.

TIA,
