Laravel 4 HTML images

Question

My question is does Laravel accept PNG images or any other format beside JPG. What is happening is when I change my image to JPG it can find it, but as soon as I change it to PNG it no longer can find the image.

{{HTML::image('images/DRCSportslogo.png', 'DRC Sports Race Management', array('id' => 'DRCS-logo'));}}

I have this image formatted in both PNG and JPG in the same file directory so I know it's not the location of the file.

Solution 1

The laravel search the image in the public folder, then you should have a file public/images/DRCSportslogo.png

{{ HTML::image('images/DRCSportslogo.png', $alt="DRCSports", $attributes = array()) }}

Solution 2

Try

<img src="{{asset('images/DRCSportslogo.png')}}" alt="DRC Sports Race Management" id="DRCS-logo" />

Solution 3

There is no difference what you input there it can be .jpg, .png or even .exe or any other file on system.

You can see that in api page : L4 API HTML::image

Only thing i can suggest is to browse directly to the image you want to reach. In my experience sometimes ftp clients make false uploads (empty png files). That could be the case.
