Home Page: image in Welcome Content Area
 

I'm trying to place an image in the home page welcome content area along with the welcome message. I'm attempting to divide the welcome area in half; left half text, right half an image. [ Customer/main/Welcome.tpl or click webmaster mode ]

Argh, no luck. I can get the Alt text to appear, but not in the correct position and no image.

Will some kind soul please provide me with the proper coding?

1.create skin1/images/custom directory
2. place your image in it.
3. To display image in a template use

To divide area in a half use or floating divs or simple table.

Unfortunately, your kind suggestion didn't work. Is there a difference between between your suggested code and my earlier failed attempt :
My Failure <img src="{$ImagesDir}/your_image_here.gif" alt="Something" />
Your <img src="{$ImagesDir}/custom/your_image_here.gif" alt="Something" />

There must be a way of placing an image inside the Welcome area or in the middle of the "product description". I just can't find it.

The question remains open: How do I place an image inside the Welcome area?

Thanks again Victor

I'm so embarrassed. The WYSIWYG Editor allows for image insertion.
