I am trying to make a sort of backwards banner advert, I want to put a line of images at the bottom of my page, like membership of organizations, How can I fix it to display these images along the bottom of the page instead of or as well as the footer text??
TIA

you need to have the full URL in the img scr
or place the image in site1 folder
also add it to additional files to ensure it is uploaded ( i think add files is in the advanced menu)

....and be aware that filenames are usually case sensitive on web servers. So <IMG SRC="LOGO147.JPG"> wouldn't load the image called logo147.jpg as this is a different filename.

Thanks all!
putting the images in the site 1 folder gave the best results as it shows them up in preview as well!, I managed to hyperlink them so I must be getting the hang of it. I have the advanced user guide but I couldnt find the answer in there, guess I am going to have to study it a bit closer!

Another thought... If you want these images to be near your Footer then you can include the HTML in the Footer text. If you look in Design / Options / Defaults you will see Footer. You can add HTML code in there as long as you start it with "!!<" and end it with ">!!" (without the quotes).
E.g. You could have:-
Thank you for shopping here!!< <br><center><img src=myimage1.gif><img src=myimage2.gif></center> >!!
Which will, after the message, make a new line and display 2 images side-by-side and centered on the page. Images are best kept in Site1 as you've already discovered.
As you're not tinkering with the templates this way there is a lot less chance of breaking something and it's easy to clear out the footer if it doesn't work as expected. It's also easy to add / remove items for special occasions, etc.
You can do similar things in the page Header and even in Product Descriptions.

Thank you Norman!
I have to get out of the bad habit of using two exclamation marks in my text as it confuses the html, I reallise it would be "dangerous" for me, a raw learner, to go fiddling about with the templates too much!, I always remove stuff by putting it into comments so I can find it again, learning the html for putting in a picture and a hyperlink has been a great help as all I could do before was <Br> and change the fonts!! (oh no I've used two again, see its a habit).Ihave lost touch with the company who sold me my V4 and I am trying to finish my site on my own.
Best Wishes
