THE PROBLEM
I created a website during a 14-month road trip (www.destoop.com). It
has approximately 100+ pages with approx. 2000+ pictures. For a reason
I can't explain, pictures on the earlier pages no longer appear,
except for a small red x in the top left corner. E.g.
http://www.destoop.com/trip/3%20DAYBYDAY/010904%20Delhi-Amritsar/Driving/DrivingIN.htm
I have tried to fix this, by "re-writing" the page, by re-assigning
the links, without success. Also, the father of two little ones, I
have little spare time. I'd like to fix this.
THE QUESTION
Who could fix this for a reasonable amount of money?
YOUR ANSWER
Of course, there might be a very simple, non-too-time consuming way of
doing this. Your answer would be a description of how this is done.
Alternatively, if there is no easy way of fixing this, I am looking
for a list of websites that offer these services. Since this type of
service would entail handing over the password to my website, I am
eager to find a reputable company. In a perfect world/answer you would
let me know if these have a good reputation.
Yes, I will tip.
Thanks!

Howdy Christian,
Let me identify the problem first, and then work with you in order
to try to fix it.
If we look at the HTML code of the page in question ...
http://www.destoop.com/trip/3%20DAYBYDAY/010904%20Delhi-Amritsar/Driving/DrivingIN.htm
... there is this fragment, 13 lines down ...
<img border="0" src="../../0012%20December/0012_D1.gif" width="65" height="41">
The name of image that is not showing is:
0012_D1.gif
If we look in the directory where that file is located, we see that
in there it is named:
0012_D1.GIF
The whole pathname to the image/file in question is:
http://www.destoop.com/trip/3%20DAYBYDAY/0012%20December/0012_D1.GIF
Here is the directory URL:
http://www.destoop.com/trip/3%20DAYBYDAY/0012%20December/
Please note that even though the names of the file are the same, your
web site is hosted on a machine running software wherein the file
names are case sensitive.
So, to fix your problem, you either need to change the HTML fragment
to read:
<img border="0" src="../../0012%20December/0012_D1.GIF" width="65" height="41">
or change the file name of the image in question to:
0012_D1.gif
The question now becomes if you are able to do one or the other change
readily or easily? Please advise if you are able to make the change in
your editor, which appears to be FrontPage, or if you change the name
of your file on your computer, or change it on the web server, using an
FTP or telnet program. Thanks!
