can see a picture on computer but not on internet

It started out as the Photography template, but I kind of got rid of everything else while I was looking for the problem. If I look at the site on my computer the picture is there, but as soon as I upload it, it doesn't show up anymore. Everything else on the site worked fine. (it's not there anymore though) I'll bet it's something simple, but I don't know what I'm doing. Can somebody please take a look?

the picture was in the style.css file, but that's a good idea - I'll try putting it in the .html file

ok, that works - still though, is there any reason why something would work on my computer, but not on the internet?

there can be several pics in the style sheet, but they will not show up in your browser until they are called in the html file.

Up upload the pics to the wrong directory, uploaded in the wrong mode,
Ascii mode transfers files as 'text'. Examples of ascii files would be .txt, .asp, .html, and .php files...

Binary mode transfers files as raw data. Examples of binary files would be .wav, .jpg, .gif, and mp3 files...

The server just hiccuped and you need to transfer again.

I think I had the file extension saved in caps and I couldn't see it in windows, but I noticed it in the FTP program. In the html file it was lower case.

I've been messig with this stuff all day and I'm starting to get the hand of it - thanks for the help!
