Compass and the config.rb file

Hi,

I am struggling to get compass to recognise my file paths for my images and fonts when using the image helper utility. Normally I just use codekit and it does all this for me, but I am using zurb foundation which codekit doesn't support so I need to use the terminal.

I am running Compass watch with all gems installed correctly and everything else is working fine, the css compiles but it won't abide to the directory paths I have set up when I use the image helper utility.

Can anyone help please?

Sods law, as soon as I have written this I work it out!

For anyone having a similar issue, every time you make a change in the config.rb file you have to stop compass and start it again using ctrl c and then type compass watch. There may be a different command to just refresh but that worked for me.
