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

<img src="{$ImagesDir}/custom/your_image_here.gif" alt="Something" />

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.
