image uploading

[schoolboy]

Zencart will create a <base href> in the header, so all you need do is:

<img src="images/abcde.jpg">

(Assuming you have the image in the main images folder and it is called abcde.jpg)

I can't get more "layman" than this...

You need a very basic understanding of HTML if you want to manage your content in the way you are proposing. The <img src="images/abcde.jpg"> is very basic html...

Try putting this in to the input field for the "Insert Image" feature:

images/abcde.jpg

... and make sure the image is in the main images folder (you will have to FTP the image to that folder.
