Hello,

I am designing my website and I just when I thought I was done... it won't work.

If you look at this page....

aberthdesign.com/symbols.html

you'll notice that the images are not loading...

if you look at this page...

aberthdesign.com/print.html

you'll notice they are. what gives? can anyone tell me why only certain images are loading? Any help is much appreciated!!!


**EDIT** I got the symbols page to work by saving the files as png rather than jpg. However jpgs still work on other pages, for instance the photography page. To see a page that half works and half does not: aberthdesign.com/chimera.html

sorry, I just edited my above post. I managed to fix the symbols page, but only because png files are small with the vector art. With heavier color photos this method wont work. check out: aberthdesign.com/chimera.html. Some of those images work, other don't. I'm stumped.

Multiple problems... I realize you're a graphic designer and I hope you went to school for it. if you did then i hope the school showed you at least a little bit about web design... the right way...

1. I noticed you are using tables for your design, why not go with css?
2. in firebug "cottoncandy.jpg" comes up as a bad image so it wont show up same as demoderby.jpg
3. you are getting 403 errors on your images which basically means the server is not allowing access to them or they're simply not there at all...

Look into this stuff I noticed its your Thesis work after I wrote all of this. If coding is not really going to matter then dont worry about it, but you may want to try hard linking those images you know <img src="www.domain.com/gallery/chimera/image.jpg" /> something to that extent... see if that fixes it, also double check and make sure those files are uploaded in the right spot and have the correct capitalization and spelling and everything.

Graphic design and web development are NOT one and the same.

Just because someone is a "designer" does NOT mean they should know how to create HTML documents and style them with CSS.

I occasionally do some work for a friend who is an amazing print designer, but the occasional website he does is a PhotoShop "slice and dice" and looks like a colour brochure.
