When some of my students use the image tag to load an image, all that appears is the alternate description. It looks like their code for the tag is correct and the image has be added to web lab.  
Spelling of file name is correct. We tried resizing the image to make it smaller, but it still did not load. Any other suggestions?

Hi Jeff,

Can you share an example of the code they are using? This will help to see it in order to figure out what is happening.

Thanks

Jeff,

Also a good practice is to copy the url and try opening it in a new tab/window. I know our schools filter blocks a lot of images so even though students get the URL (copy image address from google images), the image still won’t show up when they try to use it.
