My Graphics are bad

[HuHwhatHow?]

When I downloaded my files my graphics did not show up correctly. What should I do to fix them?

I looked at your page (got the web site from another post). It appears that the images for you website are currently coded so that it is looking for them in the root (www) folder, the same place that your index.html file is located.

Normally people put images in a folder called "images" that is in the "www" folder. If you did this, your index.html page is looking in the wrong place for the images.

For example, change your
img src="b7abt27g.gif"
so that it reads
img src="images/b7abt27g.gif"

This is of course if you uploaded your pictures to the images folder. If you called the folder something else, just change images to the name of the folder that you have placed the images in.

Also, in case you do not already know this, image and file names are case sensitive. So if you coded the image as b7abt27g.gif but the file you uploaded from your local computer is B7ABT27G.gif, the image will not be found. It is a good habit to keep all your file names lower case as to keep from the confusion.

Hope this helps!

Thanks I'll try it. I'm new to all this and did not know that.

I have no idea where any "folders" are, all I see are "files". Also you said "Normally people put images in a folder called "images" that is in the "www" folder. If you did this, your index.html page is looking in the wrong place for the images." You did not say where the right place to put this "folder" is. When you say to change the "src=img" to "For example, change your
img src="b7abt27g.gif"
so that it reads
img src="images/b7abt27g.gif" Where do I do this, in the image folder, or on my web editor, or both? I have tried alot of things so far and nothing works.

When I downloaded my files my graphics did not show up correctly.Downloading is when you copy something from a website to your computer. I think you mean you uploaded the files.

I looked at your page and I saw that you changed the src attribute as johnfl68 suggested, but the images aren't in that folder either. How did you attempt to upload them? With an FTP program or CNC? When you upload the files, do you see a list of them, and do you see any gif files?

[HuHwhatHow?]

Yes I meant upload. I used the cnc. I made a new html doc and put the three images in it, then uploaded it and moved it to the "www" file. I don't know how to make a folder for them, I saw them in the html doc., but not any gif files. Thanks.

Hello,

You need to do two things... Create the images directory and then actually upload your image files individually.

First access your CNC File Manager navigate until you are in your /www directory and then press "Create Directory"

Type in images and then press "Create Directory"

This will create the directory you have coded your files to look for images in.

Then navigate into the newly created Directory and then press "Upload files" and then locate each of your images on your local computer using the browse buttons and then actually upload the images themselves...
