Brandon,
Reading also your post here, I wondered whether some confusion has crept in?
The Resources folder inside a RW Project is the location where you can store images etc inside that Project without having to worry about them after you’ve dragged them in.
It doesn’t get published. It’s best left unattended - especially when you create a Portable Document.
Similarly, in order to upload images etc from that Resources folder inside RW, you simply need to republish.
If I haven’t been clear, please do ask!
