Disk images pack entire folders or disks into a single compressed file, either for transport across the Internet or simply for backup.

They are Apple’s preferred format for distributing Mac software and the only archive format whose contents you can directly access in the Mac Finder—no third-party software required.

DropDMG is a simple to use andseful application that enables you to quickly create .dmg archives on your Mac using drag and drop.

Features:
· Create and convert disk images and archives with a simple drag and drop. There are also many other convenient ways to invoke DropDMG.
· DropDMG supports all the major formats, including compressed .dmg files (smaller than Disk Utility’s), .sparsebundle files, .zip and .tar.gz archives, and hybrid disk images.
· Configurations let you reuse common collections of options, and temporary options let you easily make one-off changes.
· Quickly burn files, folders, or disk images to CD or DVD. Multi-session support lets you add files to an existing CD.
· Create .dmg disk image files, Apple’s recommended container format for deploying Mac OS X software.
· Design reusable layouts with background images and pixel-perfect icon positioning.
· Apply a license agreement that Mac OS X will display before the user can install your software. Licenses support rich text and multiple languages.
· Automatically renders a custom volume icon that badges your application’s icon onto the white disk image icon, with the proper 3D perspective.
· Make your disk images Internet-enabled so that Safari automatically expands them into a folder after download.
· Store your license agreements and layouts in open formats (RTF, XML) under version control.
