# Strange Error. Please Help!

 * I’ve installed WordPress on [this ](http://howtodealwithforeclosure.com/) domain
   with fantastico through Hostgator and I’ve ran into several problems after doing
   so. The theme looks completely wrong (and every theme that I’ve added to this
   domain looks completely messed up as well), I can’t preview the themes, and I
   can’t see the icons in the visual editor.
 * Please, if anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

 * Your theme images are generating 404 not found errors because they have a slash
   at the end:
 * [http://howtodealwithforeclosure.com/wp-content/themes/default/images/kubrickheader.jpg/](http://howtodealwithforeclosure.com/wp-content/themes/default/images/kubrickheader.jpg/)
 * Why it’s doing this I don’t know. Check your WordPress and blog url settings 
   for an improper trailing slash, check your .htaccess for trailing slash rewrites,
   or just start over and reupload and reinstall WordPress using the instructions

 * First of all, thank you very much for the response. I really do appreciate it.
 * In response to your suggestions, I checked my url settings in the Settings/General
   section of the WordPress Dashboard and everything seems to be normal. I’m not
   sure if this is what you meant though.
 * And as for the .htaccess, there isn’t one for this domain’s directory. Do you
   suggests that I create one for this domain?

 * No, the lack of one would not cause this. But do check your .htaccess in the 
   site root if there is one.

 * There is a .htaccess file in my public_html directory although it isn’t in this
   domain’s directory.
 * Here are two sections of commands that look like they might have caused this 
   problem.
 * # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond%{
   REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.
   php [L] </IfModule>
 * RewriteRule .*\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|bmp)$ – [F,NC]
 * The weird thing about all of this is that I installed wordpress on my main domain
   the exact same way I did on this one and it has no issues what so ever.

 * Well, I just deleted RewriteRule .*\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|bmp)$ – [F,NC] without
   really knowing what to expect and it actually fixed the problem. Thank you for
   recommending this because I’ve been trying to solve this problem for days now.
