MoleBox works fine with BlitzMax for me. I've used it with a program that has several graphics files, two .ttf files, and an XP manifest file that are included along with the BMax/MaxGUI executable (which imports a projecticon.o file) in a single .exe. So, it seems to be able to handle just about anything. :)

The free approaches mentioned above should be able to do most if not all of that, though. I went with MoleBox Pro since I want to be able to send out updated data/resource files as archive updates if needed for bigger projects, and MBP allows for that easily. For the Mac & Linux versions of the above-mentioned program, I recoded a bit to use Incbin (the executables were naturally larger since MoleBox compresses and Incbin doesn't), but all three versions were similar sizes when zipped for downloading.
