  1. Hi there, Using the image tag as you describe isn't related to Cascading StyleSheets (CSS) in any way, unless you have written some CSS rules that affect the IMG tag? You have written the tag correctly, therefore it makes me wonder if you have the image uploaded to the same directory as your HTML file? Does it work offline (like in a folder in your desktop). You can use images with CSS, but only as background images. This would work like so: CSS: .header {background:url(image.jpg) no-repeat left top #fff;} HTML <div class="header"></div>
  2. Have you tried swapping the location of where you're trying to insert the image?? I've used css quite a few times and have had no problems with images.Try: Freewebs or Piczo. These are alright sites to build webbies on (but piczo is mainly for hosting images etc.). They both accept HTML so it shouldn't be a problem :). But I'm sure with piczo you can move images/text around with your mouse, it's a lot easier. Good luck!
  3. One little detail that's easy to overlook is if your extension is spelling incorrectly or if it has the wrong case it will not be recognized. So if your tag is <img src="filename.jpeg" width=" " height=" "> but the file is named filename.jpg or filename.JPEG it will not appear in the web page. So make sure the spelling and uppercase and lowercase letters match exactly.
  4. Also if you have the width="" and height="" internet explorer will not display the image.
  5. In response to your question about an easier company for building a website, I use Site-Build-It. It's an all in one building, web host, submit to the search engines for you, automatically sets up a blog and RSS plus gives you lots of support, etc. I tried a few of the free companies at first but the reality was that I just didn't know enough to create site that had color, images, tables, and so on. This is what my site looks like now- http://www.skincareresourcecenter.com SBI does cost about $25 a month but I find it well worth it because it's easy and I get the help I need when I'm stuck. Good Luck!
