Ranking Images

I have ranking images I want to use, and I plug in the URL's from the admin panel through the ranks section. Instead of giving me a picture, they give me the rank text title instead (ie, site admin, n00b, etc). This is quite annoying, since they having the ranking text right below it, meaning the same rank just appears twice when I select an image.

Is there a really easy fix for this?

Thanks, John

I looked at your site.
To me it seems as though you have entered the incorrect path to the image. The red X means it cant find the image, and the text in the box is the "alt" attribute , the text that appears when you put your mouse over the image.

The path to the image should be images/rang5.gif
or /images/rang5.gif i cant remember if it needs the leadiing slash.

I don't know how you see that, I just see the rank title twice. anyway,

the path should be
images/ranks/your rank.gif

no beginning slash.

I had this exact problem too... It was simply the leading "/" that was messing it up. (even though the images were showing in the rank admin setup, they were only showing as doubled text).

Removing teh leading "/" has cured it.

Thanks!
