Use dropArchive for a simple way to archive and compress folders/files containing both data and resource forks. It's just a wrapper for 'ditto' which is part of all MacOS X installations.

Just drag your folder or file on to the droplet. Resulting .cpgz archives can be double-clicked in Finder for easy extraction.
