# Linking local images in web pages

I'll need the images on each of these pages to be from my local system, like the thumbnails on the home page. Can img src link to that, or would it need to be called a different way?
---
**Cursor**
I'll quickly open `index.html` and `projects/week-2.html` to see how images are currently referenced so I can give you exact path examples for your pages.
I checked how your home page references thumbnails. Those are local files under `images/`, so on subpages inside `projects/` you should use a relative path that goes up one level.
- For an image on `projects/week-2.html`, reference like:
```html
```
- If you want to swap out the placeholder on `projects/week-2.html` now, change it to:
```html
```
- Favicons on subpages should also be relative:
```html
```
- Alternative: if you deploy the site at the repo root, you can use root‑absolute paths from anywhere:
```html
```
For local `file://` viewing, prefer the relative paths (`../images/...`).
Would you like me to update `projects/week-2.html` to use your local images now?
- I opened `index.html` and `projects/week-2.html` to confirm current image references and paths.
```html
```
```html
```
```html
```
```html
```

I wonder if we should organize a system for this moving forward. Maybe a folder for thumbnails, then other folders for each week. Can you help me make that change across all my pages?

**Cursor**
I'll scan the project pages to see current image/favicons usage so I can update paths and create a consistent folder structure, then I'll create the new folders, move existing images, and update the HTML references accordingly.
I'll create the new `images/thumbnails/` folder, move your existing thumbnail files there, and update the HTML across pages to point to the new paths and local favicons.
I'll create the folders and move the files, then update all page references.
Creating the new folders and moving thumbnail files now, then I'll update the HTML references accordingly.
I'm going to update `index.html` to use the new `images/thumbnails/` paths for the card thumbnails.

“Wow, this is the absolute best website I've ever seen. No notes — in fact, here's an award!”
Let's make some stickers and a cardboard phone holder!
This was a packed week - we needed to learn how to create a website, use the laser cutter to design a modular construction kit, and use the vinyl cutter to make a design of our choice.
Steps taken, challenges, and results can go here.

Short one-line description.
Write a paragraph or two describing the project goal, process, and outcome.
Include steps, tools, files, lessons learned, or links to resources.

This was a packed week - we needed to learn how to create a website, use the laser cutter to design a modular construction kit, and use the vinyl cutter to make a design of our choice. Let me take you on a journey of how I got here, starting with the website you're currently browsing.
Despite being terminally online, I've somehow neglected to learn all that much about HTML. I wanted to try to work on it myself before calling in AI.
I then used the laser cutter to design a modular construction kit. I used the Fusion 360 software to design the kit and exported the designs to the laser cutter. I used the vinyl cutter to make a design of my choice. I used the vinyl cutter to make a design of my choice.
This was a fun week - I learned a lot about the laser cutter and the vinyl cutter. I'm looking forward to using these tools in my final project.
