Is it hard to do something like this:

I think it's a nice touch. But we might not need that. What do you think?

Gonna investigate how to create dmg files. Should be fairly straight forward. However, I think it would be nicer to invest some time in automatic updates. As in, the app downloading a new version of itself and handling relaunching etc.

We could have both, dmg for new installations and a zip-file for updates ;)

Apple encourages the use of DMGs, and they have their advantages, not because of volume design, but because they can be code-signed for secure distribution. There are good tools for this, incl. DMG layout design, like DropDMG. And it's probably pretty easy to rely solely on DMGs, for first installation and updates. (DMGs can be quietly mounted on any mount point, which is a big plus; just mktemp, then hdiutil with quiet mount arguments, and let the updater do the job, Sparkle etc.)

[Deleted comments about .pkg, because you shouldn't use them to install into ~/Applications.]
