i am not sure but i think the RESOURCE folder is the main holder of you image
and the image folder are the temp or cache file folder for all the image that will resize to fit on your shop category's and product picture

example
in Resource folder there is a file xxx.jpg

in image folder there is then the file
xxx_000_.jpg-####-45*45.jp
xxx_000_.jpg-####-250*250.jp
xxx_000_.jpg-####-380*380.jp

the server don't need to spend the time to resize it every time when a costumer looks to you products

if i am wrong please correct me :)
