Hi, I'm trying to hard-code a image into a custom wordpress theme I'm developing, but the blimming thing won't show! Its strange because if I call images using the css background-image tag, they show fine, but I'm using the following code and it its just not showing. here's my html/php:

<a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>">
<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>test1.jpg" alt="test image" /></a>

 

The alt description shows, but no image. the image file is in the same folder as the php files. What am I doing wrong? I've been fighting the blimming thing all afternoon!

<?php echo trailingsla****(get_template_directory_uri()); ?>test1.jpg

 

...although really it would be neater as:

 

<?php echo trailingsla****(get_template_directory_uri()); ?>images/test1.jpg

OK, Tried that and all it does is output the path to the image, not display the image itself, heres the code I used (I took your suggestion and created a images folder)

<?php echo trailingsla****(get_template_directory_uri()); ?>images/test1.jpg

Sorry, I meant to dump that in the code you posted:

 

<img src="<?php echo trailingsla****(get_template_directory_uri()); ?>images/test1.jpg" alt="test image" /></a>

El perfecto!!!! cheers
