this error would mean that the application does not have rights – to write / create new directory. You will need to change the directory in which you want to write to say 777 which would give read/write/execute access to that directory.

You should never use 777 as that is a big security risk on your website!

With a decent webshost setup you would never need to use 777 anyways.

Regarding the error most likely its trying to create the folder /images/resized/

Look if that folder is there and if not create it manually and the error should be gone.

Yes, I totally agree that once the error goes, he can remove the 777 rights… but initially to have the folder created by the application u need to give rights! or he has to manually create the folder which is another option, like you have suggested….
