You can't show an image, you have to use the server-side text functions.

Thats wrong! Cleary wront!

  
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, function() 
        if isTransferBoxActive() then  
            dxDrawImage("youArguments") 
     end 
end 
)

onClientRender won't start until the resource is downloaded and started. It won't start until the entire server is downloaded. There for, your argument is invalid.

No, it's not wrong. Client-side scripts get started when downloading is done? So how do you even want to start the drawing of a DX element? (This is about when joining the server for the first time, or he does mean downloading with fetchRemote/downloadFile, then you can.)

How can you check if he is downloading the resources then lol?? Thats only the way I know.

You can't call client functions when the client is still downloading. Therefor, you can't create an image while the client is downloading.

I had another idea: can I set to download only the map and the resource with the photo and after a few seconds with a timer download the rest?

No (Well, actually you could, but you would need to make a custom client download system), the closest thing you could probably do to setting an image while downloading is setCameraMatrix.
