403 Forbidden Error

Hi, the images on my website are not visible, and instead give a "403 Forbidden: You don't have permission to access [directory] on this server." error. What does this error mean and how can I fix it? Thanks, Ansel

Can you show how you linked your images and where they are stored on your computer in relation to your HTML file?

hope that helps.

Sorry if I was a little unclear, the images load fine in workspaces. They are in correct relation to the html document, and the tags work fine when I'm just previewing.
