ILSpy should do this job - see features at http://wiki.sharpdevelop.net/ILSpy.ashx and the screenshot below.

Answer 3

JustDecompile can do that. You can right-click on a resource and select Save from the context menu.

Answer 4

You can save the .resources file and then use the resgen tool (part of the VS2010 tools) to convert it back into a .resx file, using a command line like:

resgen foo.resources bar.resx

The .resx can then be added to a C# project. Once you've done this, if you try to open the individual images, VS2010 will offer to extract them into a standalone image file.
