How do I change the red X to the picture I inserted in my web

I have tried to insert a picture on my web page, by inserting from My
Pictures, saving and closing my web The result has been a small red X, but
never the picture. I have read the instructions on the help page, but can't
resolve the problem even when using the help instruction.

Import the image into FP first...usually into your Images folder, then
insert it into your design from there.

What do you mean by "inserting from My Pictures".?
Is this something you did inside FP or outside.

Anyway, your link is wrong.
If your link is (for example)
<a href=''images/display/trevor.jpg">Click here for picture</a>
the image file trevor.jpg must be in the folder %webroot%/images/display

By %webroot% I mean, for a local web, a folder such as
C:\Documents and Settings\Trevor\My Documents\My Webs\myweb
which is the folder where you index page exists

For the website, it may be an address such as http://tandcl.homemail.com.au
but when you publish, this will be taken care of

If the two are not the same, either alter the reference (use HTML or Code
view to do this) or move the image file.

I find it quite safe to do this yourself. You don't have to get FP to do it
for you. Once you have changed the HTML code, it will stay changed.
