Photohop - batch iimport images into 1 file

Is it possible in Photoshop to batch import 128 individual sprite .png files to create one large file containing them all ?

Or perhaps there's a 3rd party app that can merge lots of .png images into a single .png file. The single .png file containing an "image strip" of all the individual .png files

why don't use Bmax for this?
It's quite easy: put all the image in a directory, read the single images from it, then draw on the screen and finally save the buffer as a big image.
Somewhere on my hd I should have the source...

[edit]

'Graphics 800,600
where$=RequestDir("Select folder","..")
Print "DIR: "+where
Global image:String[200],cont=0
'a global array to store the images filename
Print "Loading images..."
ScanDir(where)
Print "Scanning complete...."+cont+" Images founds"
Graphics 800,600
Print "Loading images and drawing it on the screen..."

Local temp:timage
For i=0 To cont-1

temp=LoadImage(image[i])

Print "File: "+image[i]


DrawImage temp,xx,yy
If xx<640-ImageWidth(temp)
	DrawImage temp,xx,yy
	xx=xx+ImageWidth(temp)
	Else
	xx=0
	yy=yy+ImageHeight(temp)
	End If

Flip



Next
temp=Null
Print "Saving backbuffer..."
final_image=CreateImage(640,480)
GrabImage final_image,0,0

SavePixmapPNG(LockImage(final_image),"test.png")
End



Function ScanDir:String(tdir:String="")

If tdir="" tdir=CurrentDir()
ChangeDir(tdir)
Print "Directory to scan  "+tdir
Local dir:Int=ReadDir(CurrentDir())
If Not dir Print "Not a directory!";Return
Repeat
	t$=NextFile( dir )
	If t="" Exit
	If t="." Or t=".." Continue
	If Instr(t$,".jpg") '<_------------- check this for the image type to load
		image[cont]=CurrentDir()+"/"+t$
		cont:+1
		Print t$
	End If
Forever
CloseDir dir
End Function

Not the best piece of program...but it works!

I want a psd loader too, because you can edit the graphics in photoshop easily.
No need to load all the frames in different windows.
there is some examples of psd loaders in C++ in internet.

.

ok, before I say the replies, I checked out GraphicsGale (there's a link to it from the tool box section on this website) and I *thought* it would be perfect, plus its free!!

Turns out it'll only handle 24 bit PNG files, so my question would be can you do alpha transparency with 24bit PNG ?

degac, thanks for the code - worked beautifully.
