It works when I launch the page on the ide built in browser, but not when I open it directly from my files. Am I doing something wrong with how I have the paths setup? Im new to working with css and javascript, if its something simple I apologize.

Please remove the leading slash within the src attribute of your img tag to load images from a folder that is on the same level of the folder hierarchy as your HTML file. It has to look like this:

<img src="images/thinking.jpg" ...></img>
