Image file storage on iPhone/iPad

Hi all,

I have an app built around SQLite databases. One of the database fields contains the name of an image file. Within my app I'd like to display that image file. How can I best copy those image files onto the iPad/iPhone?

I copy my SQLite database file between my Mac and the iPad via iTunes File Sharing (and iPhone as of iPhone OS 4). I had hoped I could copy the folder of images into iTunes the same way, but it doesn't seem to allow copying a folder, and copying the hundreds of image files into the app's Documents folder seems messy.

I suppose I could change the SQLite column to be a blob containing the actual image data, but that will bloat the SQLite file size and necessitate much larger data transfer (eg copy whole database when just one entry changes).

Any ideas welcome.

Please reply to the list.

Thanks,
Tom
