iPhoneShop provides a GUI for extracting and building .artwork files for use on the iPhone. Previously on Windows this was only possible through command prompt execution of .jar files. iPhoneShop also marks the first time I had to use an installer for any of my applications. I needed an installer because iPhoneShop still uses the popular .jar file and simply provides a GUI. I tried embedding the .jar file into the .exe and writing it to a temporary location on the HD during program execution but the .jar wouldn’t write properly because it was compressed. The easiest solution was to create an installer that installed both the executable file and the .jar to a set location.
Credit to the .jar file goes to the creators though I don’t believe the project is still being pursued.
As usual, the graphics used in this application were created by Allen of planet-iphones.com.

So far this program doesn’t work for me.
It will NOT import or export any files for me and once you try and do either then it will not even do anything. I get NO choice of target directory ( wich of corse means no “GO” button to even try again)
But nice try thanks and keep up the good work!
Ah yeah… Here’s what’s wrong. The folder that your .artwork file is in MUST have subfolders… Because the .jar extracts it to subfolders. So if there are no subfolders, there will be nothing displayed.
