Anything in the error logs? Do you have the correct permissions on your
image directories? Are the images in the location the pages are looking
(http://hostahaven.com/www/hostahaven.com/images/foundation/your_images.gif)
? My variable.txt in a foundation catalog looks like:

IMAGE_DIR     /my_cat/images     Directories and Paths

my UI images in variable.txt look like this:

UI_IMAGE_DIR     /interchange/     Admin control
UI_IMAGE_DIR_SECURE     /interchange/     Admin Control

Telnet to your server and check the symbolic links to your images. Check
CATROOT/images and www/interchange. Once you correct these errors and after
making a backup, you can edit makecat.cfg to change the line items which are
wrong. Andrew, email me offlist if you need additional help, this can be
overcome.
