+There are actually two places to add art for FreeCities.  The folder you are currently in, ./resources, is not for custom art, or for the old renders.  It is only for art connected to the git, and it is pushed into the HTML when it's compiled.
+
+If you are interested in adding the old renders or your own custom art to your local version of FreeCities, then you actually want to have a resources folder in the same folder FC_pregmod.html is in.  By default, that will be ./bin/resources.  If you put art in the same folder as this readme, the compile will not recognize it and it will be left behind when the HTML is made.

+Two different resources folders, and both connected to art.  But they work very differently.
