if the image is in the same directory as the .html file you don't need the ( / ) it would only be src="nameofimage.jpg"

5,766 PointsThanks!!!, I finally figured that out. I was unable to download his files and uploaded my pics right to the root folder. Now i have deposited my pics in a nice folder named img. I sort of think it would be a little easier to name the folder images or something.

1,776 Pointsno problem, yes folders help keep things need, i usually use the img folder to keep my layout images like background images patterns, and the images folder for actual pictures and images that are part of the content. but everyone has different preferences you know whatever works best for you
