: image won't appear in box
: juxtafras August 29, 2008, 11:27:47 PM
no matter how small i make the image i'm using for the frontpage display tabs (150x84), they never appear in the tabs

please see here: www.poweredupgamers.com (http://www.poweredupgamers.com)

i don't understand why the blank space is above the tabs and why my image doesn't appear in the display tabs.

thank you for any help!

Hi, what is the url of the image you are trying to show at the top?

i input this into the image url field:

/images/stories/badcompany01-thumb.jpg

i'm reading the frontpage display and do i understand correctly that i will be able to display an image inside the tab which cycles the image to be displayed above it in the "top" region?

i can get the link to work.  i just can't get the images to work.

thanks for your help.

Hi, it doesn't look like your image is at that location, when I try to access:

http://www.poweredupgamers.com/images/stories/badcompany01-thumb.jpg

I get a not found error.

i have the picture loaded into /public_html/images/stories/badcompany01.jpg

i can see it in the files thru my ftp program and the control panel of my host

how do these folder structures relate to website url addresses?  how would i figure out where the file is in relation to:

http://www.poweredupgamers.com/???

public_html is always your starting point with urls anything after this folder is included in your url. So your url of the image would be:

http://www.poweredupgamers.com/images/stories/badcompany01-thumb.jpg

If you're certain it's in there you'll need to contact your host; your server may have file linking disabled which if it is disabled it doesn't allow certain files to be linked to.
