   I am unable to transfer images (photos) to my web site. The images are visible on my local and remote sites and on my browser but all I receive on my web site is a small box with a check (x) in the corner of the box. What do I do?

   Make sure the image reference within your Web pages is relative to your remote site.
   Your image tag has to point to the location of the stored images on your remote site.

   answer to the "x" image resulting from your preveiw:
   Your image path must be relative to your root folder -
   e.g.
   let's say you've got your folder on the server called
   "gif" and in this folder you have the image "mygif.gif"

   when you type in the path in your web editor for this image you've got to make sure the url is relative: meaning -
   http://www.yourdomain.com/gif/mygif.gif -

   Hope this helps

   Also, some systems (Primarily UNIX) are case sensitive. So mygif.gif is not the same as mygif.GIF
