Try this;
Open FP
File | New and One Page Web Site (you'll see the choice over on the right
column)
In the window that opens you'll see One Page Web Site, select that then to
the right under Options choose a location on your hardrive where to save it
and also give it a name...whatever.
This will create just a basic one page website.
Now...
File | Import ... Add File and browse to any image on your harddrive and
Import it into FP...put it into the images folder.
Now on your blank default.htm or index.htm page Drag & Drop that image from
out of the Images folder onto the page.
In Split View or Code View....your image path is correct, correct?
hth..
