   Hi everyone,

   I have just modified an existing wordpress theme with my own html/css mock site. The problem is this:

   All of my images are in a folder called 'images' within my theme folder.

   I can see all of the graphics defined by the CSS, but NOT the graphics defined within the HTML itself.

   For example: I have an image source in my header for the logo that is coded like this: <img src="images/logo.png" alt="logo" /> = no image displayed(only alt information can be seen)

   But in CSS: background-image:url('images/background.png') = image displays fine.

   Anyideas why this is happening?

   images in the php/html need to be referenced using absolute file paths:

   <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/logo.png" alt="logo" />
