Where all can you "pull" (source) an image from; meaning, does it have to be a URL, or can it be a file (is that what is meant by "relative" and "absolute")? Also, how do you "format" the image/where do you put it so it can be accessed by the code and used on the webpage? | Sololearn: Learn to code for FREE!

For example, if I take a picture and upload it to my computer, what do I do then to make that image available to encode and display online in the finished product?

Relative means something like <img src="panda.jpg">. Absolute is something like <http://mysite.com/panda.jpg>. If you are using a local image file (not hosted on the Web) then it needs to be in the same folder as your HTML file, or in a subfolder.
