I've just had word that the images (screencaps and thumbnails) at my site are inaccessible, or show up broken.
I had a look, but all the images are showing up for me in both Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer, so I have no idea what's going on. (The person who emailed me also uses Firefox.)

Can anyone take a quick look and tell me if anything looks wrong from your end? I'd really appreciate it.

I noticed before that the first releases of Firefox actually were rather sucky in rendering HTML.
If a page doen't have the specific infoline in top stating that it's HTML, it expects the page to be XML.
This means that you need closing tags for all tags.
including <P>, <BR> and <IMG>

I understand the later versions fixed this though

Whoa. I didn't even know the img tag had a closing tag? And I thought I was anal because I insisted on closing all P tags. Good heavens.

I do have this at the top, though: "!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN"

Thanks for the help!

Mary, pondering

It's <IMG src="URL goes here" alt="alternative text" />

The slash before the closing > marks it as a one-shot open-and-close tag.

The DOCtype flag in top should be enough.

Single-tags is pretty standard in HTML. Besides, it's specified as a standard in the documentation of W3C.
