Hi - show the code in your <div class="shirt-picture">

here is mine (split up for legibility), but it is from a later chapter where the URLs are cleaned up.

<div class="shirt-picture">
<span>
<img 

src="<?php echo BASE_URL . $product["img"]; ?>" 
alt="<?php echo $product["name"]; ?>"

>

</span>
</div>

?php include ("inc/products.php");

$product_id = $_GET["id"]; $product = $products[$product_id];

$section = "shirts"; $pageTitle = $product["name"]; include("inc/header.php"); ?>

    <div class="section page">

      <div class="wrapper">

        <div class="breadcrumb"><a href="shirts.php">Shirts</a> &gt; <?php echo $product["name"];?></div>

        <div class="shirt-picture">

          <span>
            <img scr="<?php echo $product ["img"]; ?>" alt="<?php echo $product["name"]; ?>">
         </span>

        </div>

      </div>


    </div>

<?php include("inc/footer.php"); ?>

hi ,

you have a typo:

 <img scr="<?php echo $product ["img"]; ?>" alt="<?php echo $product["name"]; ?>">

should begin <img src

also, you need to have no space between $product and ["img"] it should be $product["img"]
