Hello,

Thank you for contacting us. If your images or css is not loading, the most likely cause is that those files are being called incorrectly. If you don't know how to call in css, I recommend reading our guide on "Using CSS in your website," which provides a working example on how to accomplish that.

You can also use the Chrome browser or the Firebug plugin for Firefox, to view page errors such as missing .css files.

Using Chrome to inspect a page for errors:

  1. Bring your website up in the Chrome browser.
  2. Right-click anywhere on the page, and click Inspect Element
  3. When the Inspect tool pops up on the bottom, click the Console tab. You may see errors at this time, if not click F5 to refresh the page. In my tests I am getting a 404 error due to a missing style.css file:

If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below.

Thank you,
