Help...I am trying to insert an image into my welcome text and used the WYSIWYG editor in Webmaster Mode. I searched through threads regarding this and as best I can tell I've got the code correct. The image is in my skin1/images directory, but all I can get is a red x instead of the image.

Here is my code

<img alt="chef" src="<img src=" align="left" border="0" chef_th.jpg? {$ImagesDir} />Demo store powered by X-Cart.

change

<img src=" align="left" border="0" chef_th.jpg? {$ImagesDir} />

to

<img src="{$ImagesDir}\chef_th.jpg" align="left" border="0" />

I made the change you gave me and am still getting a red x instead of the image

You have this:

src="<img src=" align="left" border="0" chef_th.jpg? {$ImagesDir} />

You need this:

<img src="{$ImagesDir}/chef_th.jpg" align="left" border="0" alt="" />

Sorry for being such a pest, but I must be missing something. Balinor I cut and pasted your code and still get the red x. Here is the code I pasted:

<img src="{$ImagesDir}/chef_th.jpg" align="left" border="0" alt="" />

Did you upload the image into the skin1/images folder?

[BftEagle]

yes. I doubled checked to make sure it is there under the same filename.

one more go...

replace
<img alt="chef" src="<img src=" align="left" border="0" chef_th.jpg? {$ImagesDir} />

with
<img alt="chef" src="{$ImagesDir}/chef_th.jpg" align="left" border="0" />

Alas...no that one didn't work either inebriate.

Something is not right, as that code is correct. Make sure the file name matches exactly (chef_th.jpg and Chef_th.jpg are not the same thing).
