  im trying to add an image to the header under the navigation bar. I added the following line before </header>

  <img src=”public_html/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/books300x200.jpg” height=”80″ width =”80″>

  and all i see is a broken image under the navigation bar.

  this is the site i am working on: samsarchives.com

  am i trying to do it the wrong way?

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate, have different log-ins and run different versions of themes with same names. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  That’s NOT a free hosted WordPress.COM blog and we do not provide support for it here. You are posting to the wrong support forum.

  We provide support only for free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and not for WordPress.org software installs. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.

  <img src=”public_html/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/books300x200.jpg” height=”80″ width =”80″>

  The src value looks wrong to me. You probably want to use a full URL such as http://samsarchives.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/books300x200.jpg instead of what you are using in the example posted above.

  Many theme authors provide support, so for further questions, check with the theme author if you can. Otherwise, try the volunteer based forums at http://wordpress.org/support/ as timethief suggested.
