Inserting pics - Post ID 163252

Hi!

I've got some small thumbnail style images to insert in to my site.

When I select the insert picture icon and select the picture from the computer's directory, complete the ALT TAG etc, the finished product previews nicely.

Then I upload the saved filed to the server and it publishes.

However it publishes just the ALT TAG/TITLE text not the image...

I think it's because the image lives on my D drive, not on my site's images folder.

I am unsure how to make the file save on to the images folder that is hosted online behind my site and I think if this was properly hosted the problem would fix.

I might be wrong.
Can someone please point me in the right direction?


Thanks,
Dave.

Make sure you select the pic in your project folder to ftp that to the server also.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

How about sharing the URL to your site so we can a look at it and possibly help you.

Are you using CC software for your editing? It would give us something else to work with...besides a URL as rodgw says.

Many thanks for your very helpful feedback!

I will try out Eric's feedback first.

The URL is www.stuntacademy.com and the goal is to insert two social media icons (not code, real images) on the main page.

I am unsure what CC software is... :-/

Hope to report a good outcome soon! ... or beg for more help!

Many thanks, David.

David...look forward to that. Sorry...CC software is just our favourite way to name CoffeeCup :cool::) every time we write about a program or application! I'll take a quick look at your site anyway to see how things are moving forward.

And sure...in hindsight, Eric seems to have offered the correct solution here.
