I have also only seen the UIDocument and Core Data examples. What comes to mind is to transform your pics and docs into Core Data blobs and store them with core data anyway. This could also be very efficient.
If your folder in the Documents or Library folder of your application, it will be backed up to iCloud automatically assuming the user has iCloud enabled (and that you haven't explicitly flagged the file as NSURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey).
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
