 * Is there a way to not have to put in an absolute file path for linking images
   etc?
 * As it stands to link I need to use something like:
 * `<img src="http://localhost/Wordpress/wordpress/wp-content/themes/Verbena_test/
   images/btn5.jpg">`
 * But I’d much rather use something like:
 * `<img src="../images/btn5.jpg">`
 * But if I try this I don’t get any images, just your standard IE ‘red X’ any information
   would be appreciated since I’m new to word press and I’m working on my second
   theme 🙂
