We have not yet upgraded to DNN 5.0, but plan to soon.  For now I'm working on 4.9.x

 I'm working on developing a skin for a customer who wants there to be an image in the skin itself.  Moreover, they want the image to be a clickable link.  I'm trying to figure out how to do this the right way.

I've seen other skins which have images in them by virtue of background-image in the skin's css file.  This doesn't work for my purposes, as the image needs to be a clickable link.

If I try to put an <img> tag in my .ascx file, I can't figure out what to use for the src attribute.  I don't want to use an absolute url, because I need the skin to be reusable and I don't want it to call some image repository on the web that sits external to the DNN site.  I can't figure out how to use a relative path that doesn't break the moment the skin is used on a page that exists at a different level in the site's hierarchical structure.

If anyone's had success with using <img> tags in their skins and wants to share their approach, please respond.  Thanks!
