Help! The image files aren't loading. Any idea why?

I started Unit 4 but the image files aren’t loading for lesson 3. I decided I’d just jump ahead to Unit 5 Lesson 1 (CSS) but most of the style examples are for images! How do I get the image files to load? Is this a bug? Even the images with the complete URL aren’t loading.

Having the same issue here. I would love to know if there is a solution. A key thing I noticed is that only the images from the hypothetical client scenarios load. I had chosen Kai and copied the image link for him and it does show up. Sadly, no other pictures load.

Hi @brovich-kennisond and @Renan thanks for your note and outreach about external images in the Intro to Web Development course. We are currently working on a fix for external images loading in the course - internal images (images in the file explorer or loaded in the lessons) work as excepted.

When working in a Project, published sites will load external images but not in the Preview. This is also connected to the issue above and is being worked on so that external images appear in the Preview.

I’m going to leave this feedback open so that I can loop back once we have a fix in place.

Hi Adam, are there any updates on the problem yet? It is already a problem for learners if they cannot view the images directly in the preview, but only in a published project. Thank you very much.

Hi there, My students and I are having the same problem with images. @adamsmeets can you help me understand how to work with relative urls. Where and how does a student save their image file? Thanks
