[Solved] Adding an imageTV to a chunk

As the title says; I'm trying to add an imageTV to a chunk and that chunk is used as a getResource tpl.

Yeah that fixed it. Thanks!
But why did I need to leave out processTVs in order to make it work? According to the getResources manual it had to be included:

ProcessTVs will process any selected output widgets. For example, an image TV can be given an image output widget, which will generate the img tags for you. If you just want the raw path to the image, then you don't want an output widget and you don't want the TV processed, you just want its raw content.
