8,513 PointsYour link tag indicates all files are stored inside a folder called 'img'. If this is the case, your img tag will need to include this as well. As Henrik stated above: "img/filename.jpg".
If you don't tell the browser to look "inside" the 'img' directory first, the browser won't find the image, because it is looking in the same directory that your current page is in.
I would probably add a space before your alt attributes, too.
