Uploaded photos from training video will not display when attempting to preview the created web page in workspace!

How do I display my code for you to view?

For something like this, a new codepen will be great!

Just paste your code in, hit save, and send us the URL!

Hey Jeff, I have already deleted the workspace so that I can rewrite the code all over again. I know this may be a tedious way of trying to fix the problem but regardless it will be good practice for me. I will pay close attention to detail when rewriting the code this time. Thanks for such a quick response and informing me on how to display my code when asking for help using codepen!

Hey Jeff, I am still encountering the same problem. Here is the URL for my code. http://codepen.io/mfoster1987/pen/xbMZQN

Check your html code and make sure you have the <img> tag and the relative pathway to the image correct.

I would like to say thank you to everyone who tried helping me out with this problem. I was able to fix the issue by fixing the relative pathway, moving the photos from my downloaded files onto my desktop. Then dragging the photos from my desktop into my workspace and finally creating the file "img". Last but not least for those who may encounter the same problem, I clicked preview and the photos displayed as seen in the video. Agains thanks guys for your support!

Remove the downloaded photos from your downloaded files and place the img folder on your desktop! This worked for me on my MacBook Pro Yosemite version!

One thing to check: make sure you've put the uploaded images into the img folder. If that's not the issue, I'll wait to see your code!

The src attributes of your img tags look fine. There are three things you are going to want to check:

  1. You want to make sure that the images you've uploaded have been uploaded to the img folder in your Workspace.
  2. Your html file should be in the base of your Workspace.
  3. The names and filetypes of your images should match what you've got in the img tag's src attribute. For example, the first image (with the src attribute of "img/numbers-01.jpg`) should be a .jpg file named "numbers-01.jpg", and it should be in the "img" folder in Workspaces.

The path and filename in src have to exactly match the actual path and filename of the file.

It seems like you have wrong filenames of the images or your index.html is located not in the base of your site structure.
