[SOLVED] ,When I try to add the image it always shows up as a broken image instead of the image itself.

I don't know how to make the image actually show up. It only shows as a broken image even though I am entering the code exactly the same as it is shown in the video. What is the problem? The images appear in the file on my desktop and they were added to the work space with no issues.

Thank you for your response. I figured out the problem with some troubleshooting and now I seem to understand what happened. I'm totally new to this type of work so I have some hangups every now and then.
