That's not a very good idea.
If you want to use old-fashioned skin layers, then do that. No-one's
stopping you However, making some kind of Frankenstein Zope 3 browser
resource/regular resource is not advisable.
The downside of this approach, is that these resources will "acquire" in a
flat namespace, so, say, if someone uploads a file myimage.png and you have
a myimage.png, then in some circumstances the file may override the image in
the skin layer. The ++resource++ namespace effectively protects you from
conflicts.
Note that you can also use <browser:resourceDirectory /> to avoid having to
register so many resources. That way, you do
++resource++some.directory/myimage.png.
