Hi,
you can use image_tag, the code below looks for the rails.png located at /public/images/
<%= image_tag("rails.png") %>

I had a feeling it was going to be that easy, lol... Thanks!
one more question, however,
what if the file name is a variable? for example i want to do something like this...
<%= image_tag("stamps/@stamp.name") %> (but this won't work)
figured it out
<%= image_tag("stamps/" + @stamp.name) %>
looks like i still have a lot of learning to do!

you can use the following to instead of the "+"
<%= image_tag("test/#{@image_test}") %>
