I'm trying to create my own skin for a site.  I started with one of the default skins, and changed the layout, and packaged it as the manual suggests.  I uploaded the skin package, and everything worked fine.  I then continued to edit the skin files (the ones on the actual site now) so I could see my changes as I was working.  I was only editing the layout and some colours in the .ascx and .css files.

The problem started when I wanted to add an image to my skin.  I added an img tag:  <img src="logo.jpg"/> to my .ascx file, and put the logo.jpg file in the same folder as my .ascx file.  (This is all on the server on the 'live', installed version of the skin).  Of course the image doesn't show up correctly because the path is wrong.  So I reparsed the skin, but the image still doesn't show up properly.  I tried reparsing with both the "localized" and "portable" options with no luck.  The image tag in the .ascx file stays as <img src="logo.jpg"/> .  I thought reparsing the skin made DNN prefix the logo.jpg with the appropriate path?  What's the proper way to reference the image when designing my skin (assuming the skin will be in the same folder as the image)?

BTW, I'm on DNN 4.3.0.

<img alt="" src="<%= SkinPath %>logo.jpg" height="43" width="20">

Paul, the <% = SkinPath %> snip goes into the .ascx file, not the html file. The parsing engine adds this when creating the .ascx.  Good catch noticing it was the logo and using the skin object!
