Help viewing "smells like bakin site in browser" (I hope this is accurate)

Hello,

I am having trouble with viewing the "smells like bakin" website in my browser (chrome). I can see the text and links but no background color or images.

I do have an "img" with the project files in it. (only pictures) I do also have the DOCTYPE and INDEX files in the same library as "img" folder (Pictures library)

This is how it looks in chrome

This is the weird part. (In a good way) http://codepen.io/anon/full/EvKgi

Help would be appreciated! :)

Just to clarify, do you have a folder with a file called index.html, and a folder named "img" inside it?

I had the same problem, even though I use safari as browser, it didn't show the pictures. Once you download the folder with the images you need, move it on the dekstop or in general documents; then move your index.html file in the same folder (not in the images of the website folder but in the general one). Then place again your index.html file in the web bar and refresh, so that the browser can find the images from the same folder where your index file is. It should work, it did with me, so I hope it will with you :)

@kyle Boyer Thank you gor the response. I really appreciate it. I have a file called index.html. and also DOCTYPE. I also have a folder called "img" with only the images inside.

Thanks

@kyle Boyer

The "img" folder,index.html,Doctype files are all in the "pictures" library.

@Giulia Basile Thank you the response. I will definitely give it a try.

I will let you know

Thanks again

I can finally see the images! Not the background color though... I will tinker with it a bit.
