Nope. I see the wording...I can think of one more thing. Is use what you used on the website to get the red x's and stick in the properties from the pft site *the picture that you posted* there but do not use the [ IMG ] things. If that does not work then try it with [ IMG ] 's. Besides that I am out of ideas for now.

ok... if that doesn't work, go to properties, highlight the URL, and then type this <IMG SRC="PASTE THE URL HERE"> that's HTML code.

You should be able to see a picture now... just not in the right spot or the right size. This may be a while.

I see nothing.
ok... where it says: IMG]http://home.petflytr
ap.com/users/lithopsman
/aristo%20thorelli%20he
ader.jpg[/IMG], type this instead:

<IMG SRC="http://home.petflytr
ap.com/users/lithopsman
/aristo%20thorelli%20he

that should work

It appears that your Web page location for many of your photos begins with

http://home.petflytrap.com/users/lithopsman/sitebuilder/images/ ...

Check to make sure that you actually have subdirectories by those names and in that structure and further that the jpg is actually placed in that structure. I expect that "sitebuilder" might not be a subdirectory under "lithopsman"

The path to N. lowii is
http://home.petflytrap.com/users/lithopsman/images/lowii.jpg
in this case, the "sitebuilder" subdirectory is absent.

Finally, check the permissions on the files to make sure that they are readable by others.

Thanks for the help all! I think it should be working now... Can someone take a look. I'll be back from a jam session in about an hour...

I think your directory structure is still out of whack with your image link addresses.

I don't understand the directory structure... would it help if I make a temporary password, PM it to you, and let you look at how it is organized?

I sent a PM to you.

That is odd you can not get pictures to show up.

Yet you can see the red x and the outside line of the of picture. I am sure there is a way but depends how long you want to work at it. You may want to try an other place for hosting a website..

Looks like one pic should work, but it is too big and not in the right spot... this should all be sorted out in time... Computers, couldn't live without em, can't live with em...

ok, you are getting a lot of incorrect advice here!
first of all, the tags are useless for your webpage, they wont work..
ignore that..

what program are you using to build your webpage?

the problem is simply that that your webpage is looking for all your photos in the wrong place..

for the first photo on your photo page,
your website *thinks* the photo lives here:

file:///C:/Program%20Files/Yahoo%20SiteBuilder/sites/default/images/lowii.jpg

but..thats where it lives on your home computer! none of us can "see" your home computer out here in internet land..
so, you have to change:

file:///C:/Program%20Files/Yahoo%20SiteBuilder/sites/default/images/lowii.jpg

to read simply:

lowii.jpg

the path to all your images is wrong..
the webpage is looking for them on your home computer..
you need to tell your webpage to look for them in the same directory as all your HTML pages..

can you actually edit the HTML code with the program you are using?
if so, you will probably have to go in and edit all the image files by hand..
slow and tedious, but it will work..
it seems to me that the webpage builder you are using well...it sucks! ;)
(well...maybe not, if there is a way to insert an image without it writing the whole path to your C: drive..then it might not suck! ;)
I would suggest downloading netscape 4.7 (its free) and use netscape composer to build webpages..very simple and easy to use pagebuilder...

ok, meanwhile, go into the html source code of your photo page..
look for this string:

<img src="images/lowii.jpg" width="256" height="270">

if you can edit in "notepad" or "wordpad", you can do a search for specific text

that string is HTML code that "tells" your webpage where to find that particular image..its looking in the wrong place..its looking in a place where no photos exist..
basically, you have to tell your webpage where to find your photos..it doesent know, and your webpage builder is giving it incorrect information..you need to edit by hand to tell your webpage where your photos *really* are!!

so that needs to be changed to:

<img src="lowii.jpg" width="256" height="270">

images/
needs to be removed.
you also might have some problems with blank spaces in your image names..
no blank spaces, no weird characters like $%&#
only letters, numbers, dashes or underscores..nothing else..
and no blank spaces!  [img]http://www.petflytrap.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/new/smile.gif

*whew*..
we will get this figured out!!
the problem is that for some reason your webpage builder is putting in the whole path to your images..you dont want it to do that..
all you want is the image name only..

That seems to help. Try looking at the photo gallery... I can change the HTML... It is Yahoo SiteBuilder 2.0

I don't see a single pic in your gallery.
did you try what I told you about changing the
IMG]http://home.petflytr
ap.com/users/lithopsman
/aristo%20thorelli%20he
ader.jpg[/IMG]
to
<IMG SRC="http://home.petflytr
ap.com/users/lithopsman
/aristo%20thorelli%20he
ader.jpg">
? I still see the IMG] [/img] stuff which doesn't work in those webpages.

edit: If you take out the img] [/img] from that link, you CAN see the picture. (blurry, but you can see it) so that means that you do have it in "internet land" and not stored in your computer.
you can also try posting this
<IMG SRC="http://home.petflytrap.com/users/lithopsman/jacquelineae welcome.jpg">
instead of this: http://home.petflytrap.com/users/lithopsman/jacquelineae%20welcome.jpg

try clearing your Internet Explorer Temporary Internet Files so when you look at your site the Pics will not show up
