This changes at some point and broke some stuff.  
When using a resource control to drop galleries of images into a component.

```auto
        const paths = resources.map((resource) => {
		// Return a path to the resized resource
		//return rw.resizeResource(resource, 900);
		return resource;
	})

```

I had to dat been using  
return rw.resizeResource(resource, 900);

But at some point in time this has changes and it now tags “900” to the end of the paths, so we get a 404 to the images in preview and publish.

Hooks in full for context:

```auto
const transformHook = (rw) => {    
	
	rw.setProps({
		node: rw.node
	})
	
	// Extract gallery property from node properties, setting an empty object as the default value if gallery doesn't exist
	const { gallery = {} } = rw.props

	// Extract the array of resources, setting an empty array as the defult
	const { resources = [] } = gallery

	// Loop over all resources, requesting a path to the resized resource
	const paths = resources.map((resource) => {
		// Return a path to the resized resource
		//return rw.resizeResource(resource, 900);
		return resource;
	})

	// Create a hasImages, true if there are any resources, false otherwise
	const hasImages = paths.length > 0;
	
	const firstPath = paths[0];

	// Set hasImages and paths in the template data
	rw.setProps({
		hasImages,
		paths,
		firstPath
	})
}

exports.transformHook = transformHook;

```

@Doobox Good catch! I can replicate this here and it is indeed a bug, I’ll get it fixed up.

The @900 appended to the filename is because you requested the image at that size. [Elements](https://elementsapp.io/) automagically resizes images and stores them along side the original image. It’s great for generating thumbnails etc.

@Doobox Sorry it’s taken a while to get to this! There’s a fix in [Elements 1.0.6 (23722)](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/elements-1-0-6-23722/48916) so please give it another go.

Cheers
