I know I’m being a big dork here, but I’m starting a new blog and will be using the notebook template as my framework for the blog design. However none of the images show up. I’m positive it is because I put the images in the wrong directory, but I cannot figure out where they go. or maybe it is a setting in the admin panel.

Currently my theme_images folder is in the same directory as the captcha folder. You can see my new blog here.

Update,

the comments page looks fine, but the index is wrong.

In your CSS file, you’re calling URLs that resolve to something like this:

It looks like the images actually reside here, though:

So, you either need to place the images where the page/browser is expecting or alter your stylesheet to call the images where they actually reside.

thanks I got that fixed, but one more thing,

the home link at the top of the page is coded like this:

and the weblog preferences for this blog have the weblog url as http://eflgeek.com/index.php yet it still links to http://blinger.org any idea why?

{homepage} pulls from the general configuration in admin, not from the weblog settings.  Just replace it with the proper url.

the home link works fine in the index template but not the comments template even though they are coded exactly the same and the masterweblog name is the same.

That variable will take its value from the setting under ‘Admin > General Configuration’.  You can override that by specifying the “site_url” in the path.php file being used for the eflgeek.com domain.

I already had defined that

$template_group = “eflgeek”;
$template = “index”;
$site_url = “http://eflgeek.com/”;
$site_index = “index.php”;

but the link in the comments page still does not behave. Very strange because everything is coded exactly the same in both templates.

I have more insight to the problem but not a solution. the images for the comment page are called from a different directory than those for the index page. I checked the coding and the CSS link is the same for both templates:

<link rel=‘stylesheet’ type=‘text/css’ media=‘all’ href=’{stylesheet=eflgeek/weblog_css}’ />
<style type=‘text/css’ media=‘screen’>@import “{stylesheet=eflgeek/weblog_css}”;</style>

and

<link rel=‘stylesheet’ type=‘text/css’ media=‘all’ href=’{stylesheet=eflgeek/weblog_css}’ />
<style type=‘text/css’ media=‘screen’>@import “{stylesheet=eflgeek/weblog_css}”;</style>

This is quite baffling. index page and comment page
