If the folder in which the yourPage.html resides also has the
image(s) you want, make sure the html has at least this to make
the pics appear:
<img src="theImage.jpg">
If the folder has a further folder within called "pics" (say),
and you put theImage.jpg inside this folder, you will need to
write the instruction to exhibit the image like this:
<img src="pics/theImage.jpg">
If the situation is different to these two cases, it gets more
complicated and you will have to learn about file system
hierarchy, referring back and forward to where things are and so
on... It is a lot of fun.
(other - more evangelical types (God bless them) - will tell you
what else you should put in the <img ...>. But what I have told
you should make the images appear at least. Make sure you put the
right extension in the name of the picture. E.g. if it is a gif,
put .gif on the name. If you are working on some
want-to-hide-your-extensions OS, this could be a point of
confusion.)
