My image is not showing on the preview?

I have uploaded the numbers-01.jpg image correctly and it exactly replicates the example on the video yet when I preview the page; no image is shown. I have tried using a different image and I have also tried using an image from a URL. It is just not showing up at all.

Hi Erin,

Would you be able to post the code for us so we can have a look at it? Your issue sounds odd, but there might be something we can spot from the code. :)

A similar thing happened to me.

Go to your windows explorer, and go to the folder where your project is saved. Triple check that you have the correct directory name. My pic were in Howtocreateawebsite/project/img/img and that's why the image would't show in the preview. I had to delete one of the img folders. Then , Delete all the files and folders and import everything back in. Let me know if this works for you;

I had a similar problem. My Img folder had a capital (I) and in the code I inputed a lower case (i) as soon as i changed this it started to work
