I have this in my `view.blade.php`:

```php
{{HTML::image('resources/views/Folder/Subfolder/Subfolder/Photo/'.$item->Photo)}}

```

`$item->Photo` takes the image name from the database.

In the same view I have `use HTML;`, and what I see on the screen is this:

```html
<img src="http://localhost:8000/resources/Folder/Subfolder/Subfolder/Photo/3da0d12d6d8667963392a446262b1773.jpg">

```

If I replace `{{HTML::image....` with the following:

```html
<img src="resources/Folder/Subfolder/Subfolder/Photo/{$item->Photo}}" alt="NO PHOTO">

```

I see this on the screen:

> 
> 
> ```html
> <img src="http://localhost:8000/resources/Folder/Subfolder/Subfolder/Photo/3da0d12d6d8667963392a446262b1773.jpg">
> 
> ```
> 
> NO PHOTO
> 
> 
> 

The picture exists, I saw it in the folder. I'm doing something wrong, I just don't know what.

I'm thinking that `Laravel` wants pictures to be in a specific folder... could this be the cause of the problem? Do you have any ideas?

**In my controller I have this:**

```php
$destinationPath = base_path().'\resources\Folder\Subfolder\Subfolder\Photo';
            chmod($destinationPath,0777);

```

The picture size is `7.673 bytes`. I tried it with another image, and it doesn't work either. It seems that something is preventing all browsers from showing the pictures on `localhost`.

Has anyone encountered this problem before ? I don't know what else I should try ...
