doesn't show the icon picture for Facebook and Twitter link. Why?

Ok, I'm done with the video "Finishing the HTML" and everything has worked so far, but it is not showing the image of my Facebook and Twitter button.

Here is the code:

 <p> We announce all of our new flavors first through Facebook and Twitter
and even take requests. </p>
        <a href="http://www.facebook.com"><img src="img/facebook.gif"     alt="Facebook"></a>
        <a href="http://www.twitter.com"> <img src="img/twitter.gif" alt="Twitter"> </a>

Can anyone tell what's wrong? I have the images in my images folder.

Also, if I want my images to be located in this folder > " C:\Users\Viviane\Documents\TreeHouse\img ", how can I code it?

If this is relevant to say I had my pictures in the folder after I coded but I kept refreshing, I recoded, and I closed my page and re-opened again. I don't get it.

is your index.html file in the "treehouse" folder and the images in the "img" folder?

I had a folder in my documents called "Tree House", then another folder "Web site test" and my index was in this one. I also have "img" folder inside the "tree house" folder. But after I read your comment I went ahead and deleted the folder "web site test" and I left my index just inside the "tree house" folder and now it's working. I don't get it. But Thank you Elliot! I'm happy it's working :) but how did know about this?

Treehouse does a good job explaining file paths/extensions in their Websites: part 1 video. if your following the Become a Web Designer learning adventure you will cover that course along the way. Glad it helped :)
