Soundslides http://www.soundslides.com/ is desktop software that will generate a Flash slideshow from a set of images and an MP3 file. It seems to be pretty popular with news organizations and communications offices around here. The software creates a "publish_to_web" folder which contains the swf and several directories of resources (sized images, mp3 files, settings, etc). What is the best way to allow a user upload this folder to the server and attach it to a node?
My best idea is to have the user zip the folder and use a file field to upload it with the node. I would have to create some sort of custom module to handle unzipping and moving the folder. I was hoping there there is a way to do it without having to do a custom module. Any ideas?

Might have a module
I have no idea how well written it is at this point, but once upon a time (for d6) we had written something that handled soundslides for news sites. Feel free to message me and I can see if I can dig it up. Who knows, maybe it is good enough to publish!
Please check this sandbox

Thanks!
I'm making a few adjustments for my environment (don't have ZipArchive and folder won't always be called "publish_to_web"). Thank you very much for sharing. If or when I get my changes done, I suppose I will post a patch file and let my bad coding be torn to shreds.
