I have set up my development environment using the DNN tutorial from Chris Hammond's blog.  I'm now trying to include some custom images in my module.  I have added them to the manifest as files but I'm getting an error when I try to reinstall the module on DNN saying that the images can't be found in the zip file. I have placed by images inside a folder called 'images' inside of DesktopModules/MyModule - DesktopModules/MyModule/images.  In the manifest I added the following:
<component type="File">
              <files>
                  <basePath>DesktopModules\MyModule</basePath>
                  <file>
                      <name>images\account.gif</name>
                  </file>
                  <file>
                      <name>images\accountlogins.gif</name>
                  </file>
              </files>
          </component>

I get the following error message during the install:
Failure File specified in the dnn could not be found in the zip file: - D:\Websites\DNNDev\Install\Temp\b05bk2gv\images\account.gif
Failure File specified in the dnn could not be found in the zip file: - D:\Websites\DNNDev\Install\Temp\b05bk2gv\images\accountlogins.gif

When I open up the Resources.zip file inside of the installation package that includes the source the file is not included.  What do I have to change to get it included?

Need Some Guidance
