Skinned Resource File - Help

Hi
I am looking to develop an application that requires
different graphics (skinned) and text (localisation) for
each installation
am currently using C# VS 2003

Would the way to go be Resource Files, if so how do i
deploy the installation driven resource file (does it sit in the application
path)
i can see a way of compiling the resource file into the application but that
way
i would have to recomplile for every installation (and that is a nightmare)

Any ideas?

Thanks

Richard
