The image is on my computer, how do I get it to show on the webhosting server?

You need to upload it onto the internet.
You can use imageshack.us or photobucket.com for starters, but there are tonnes more to use!

You also need to have the image is uploaded on the server and the name matches exactly.
Usually the image is missing, in the wrong directory, or mis-named.
Occasionally it's a permissions problem on the server.
Very occasionally it's because the image file name has capitalization that doesn't match the HTML reference.

The image needs to be on the web server along with your html file, and the path in the tag needs to be correct. If you put the image in the same directory as the html, then just the name of the image file will do.

make sure to put quotation marks around the URL
make sure you are typing out the full URL if needed
(http://www.images.com/pic1.jpg)
*IRT Additional Details
The image needs to be uploaded to the web first. You can't link to or display an image on a web page from your computer unless your computer operates as a web server. You will have to upload the image to another web server and link it from there.

What about BMP and PNG? BMP is supported, just not recommended due to large file size.

Is the path to the image correct? That is the usual problem. If your images are in a separate directory (folder) then make sure the path reflects that.
If your web page is at http://www.mysite.com and your images are in a folder named images, your would need;
if you are using relative addressing. If you want absolute addressing try something like:
Also check the image name to be sure it is correct. File names (image names) are case sensitive! image.jpg is NOT the same as image.JPG

First, try typing in the browser address of the picture - as like it is a web page. If you don't get the picture check for capital / small letters difference in the path / name of the picture. That is the most common reason for pictures not to be shown.

Well what internet browser are you using? Some browsers have security risks set to maximum making it almost impossible for explicit content to be viewed. Or, the name of the picture is incorrect. Try typing the formats, jpeg, gif, and so on. Since the browser has been set to prevent explicit content to be viewed, it does not recognize the format that you are trying to view or it is considered unsuitable for viewers.

In the Web the images formats supported by browsers are JPG or GIF.
Please check if
- File format is JPG or GIF
- The image file does exists
- You check if you are able to access the file by trying the URL like http://website/folder/image.jpg

Did you remember to include both the quotations marks *and* the http://www...... ? I have previously linked and either did not include the quotation marks at the beginning at end or simply forgot to put the http part. After double checking and correcting they worked. Hope this helps! :)
