Image Element Not Displaying - src Attribute Issues
Images aren't showing on the page. You see the broken image icon or blank space where images should be.
The image tag exists in HTML but the source isn't loading.
Error Messages You Might See
Broken image icon showing
404 Not Found - image resource
Image failed to load
CORS error loading image
Common Causes
- Image path is incorrect or relative path doesn't resolve properly
- Image file is in public/ but path doesn't start with /
- Image stored outside public folder and not bundled
- CORS issue if loading from external domain
- Image lazy loading but loading attribute wrong
How to Fix It
For static files in public folder: use absolute path /image.jpg not ./image.jpg
Use Next.js Image component: import Image from 'next/image';
For dynamic sources: ensure URL is accessible from browser (not internal API)
Check Network tab in DevTools - does image request get 404 or 403?
Use alt attribute always for accessibility and SEO

I’ve watched the tech landscape evolve over the last decade—from the structured days of Java Server Pages to the current "wild west" of Agentic-driven development. While AI can "vibe" a frontend into existence, I specialize in the architecture that keeps it from collapsing.
My expertise lies in the critical backend infrastructure: the parts that must be fast, secure, and scalable. I thrive on high-pressure environments, such as when I had only three weeks to architect and launch an Ethereum redemption system with minimal prior crypto knowledge, turning it into a major revenue stream.
What I bring to your project:
Forensic Debugging: I don't just "patch" bugs; I use tools like Datadog and Explain Analyzers to map out bottlenecks and resolve root causes—like significantly reducing memory usage by optimizing complex DB joins.
Full-Stack Context: Deep experience in Node.js and React, ensuring backends play perfectly with mobile and web teams.
Sanity in the Age of AI: I bridge the gap between "best practices" and modern speed, ensuring your project isn't just built fast, but built to last.

Get HelpFrequently Asked Questions
Where should I put images?
Public folder: /public/image.jpg, then reference as /image.jpg. Or use next/image with src prop
What's the benefit of Next.js Image component?
Automatic optimization, lazy loading, responsive sizes, WebP conversion. Always use it for best performance
Why would image work locally but not on deploy?
Relative paths don't work. Use absolute /paths or next/image component
