    sorry for the misspelling of the ” replacement ”

    What is your URL?

    thank you in advance.

    Your sidebar image ads all show up fine for me. Try clearing your browser cache.

    the ads you see is what came with the theme and i know they show up but those are not what i want to show ,i am asking how do i replace them with my own image(ad).thank you .

    If you’ve got an X where the image is supposed to be, it sounds like the link to the image is different than the path to where the image is being stored. You may need to provide an absolute path to the image source in the place where you’re modifying the template, or revise the path to point to the appropriate location where the image is being stored?

    thank you for the help,but where would i find path and how can i provide an absolute path. forgive me if its a stupid question but i really don know my way around.thank you.

    Absolute vs. relative paths – you probably need to read up on how to write HTML before you try to modify templates.

    If you don’t have the URL that you could type into the browser that will take you exactly to the picture you want to insert, you don’t have the absolute path. For example, the absolute path to the first image on your blog right now is https://www.yceml.net/0834/10420034-2.gif
