No Images Show Up!

First of all I would like to say that I'm new to not only this forum, but to weather stations also. I am an environmental science student, and I have been in charge of setting up our Davis Vantage Pro2 and getting the information up on our website. Not only am I in charge of this, but I'm also responsible for building the environment science web site. Before I started back to school I was (still am) a graphic designer, which I did for 10 years. Well anyways, I have setup a test site on a free web hosting server, to make sure everything is running right before we go live. Now on the site none of the images are showing up, and when I look at the source code (for the gauges) I do not see any code for where the images should be. I know files are being uploaded because I can see them in my ftp program. I know I can just add the code to show the images but if I do that will the updated images show up?

Here are the links to the test site.

Any help will be great. Thanks in advance.

All of the files and folders appear to be there. The problem seems to be something to do with the way you've set up this test site with copied pages from your live site. Links from the test site appear to be referencing the live site - I think it's probably this which causes that:

Oh I did not think about that. Yeah that probably is my problem. Thanks so much. When I get to the lab today I will have to see what I can do to fix that. I guess I can just change that the base location just to make sure everything is uploading correctly. The problem I have is that my professor wants to see a nice test site before we make it live, but he might not have a choice but for us to run everything live. With dealing with a University they have really strict rules on where their images can be hosted. I can only host their images on their servers, and also I have to follow strict guidelines on how the site can look. I have some control but not a lot. Well anyways thanks for your help.
