Can't see image assets I uploaded to codepen

[jimeast]

Sorry to bring up something that's only somewhat related to GS but I couldn't find a codepen forum.  I was going to make a codepen pertaining to a problem I'm having migrating a background slideshow to GS.  What I'm migrating from can be seen here

If you watch for about 40 secs you'll notice the backgroung image does a nice cross fade to the next image.  I want to see if that is possible with GSAP.  On the way to doing that I noticed that imaged I uploaded to codepen weren't displaying.  I get this message " Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 406 (Not Acceptable)".  As you can see the images are there.

Your assets aren't relative to your pen. Click on an asset and you should see the path with an amazonaws.com domain.

 

So this is how I would use one of my images named hansen.png

<img src="https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/s.cdpn.io/106114/hansen.png">

Wow that's nuts I had to double click then right click to get a list of info with the address among them.  Fortunately they all start with the same string https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/s.cdpn.io/105814.  I saw mention of tag in the html I can use to enclose the list of links that will pass on the value of that string.  I forgot what it was, do you know?

My last reply didn't take I must have marked solved first but I wanted to add this.  The <base> tag placed before the img tags saved me from having to put the full path in the img tags.   <base href="https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/s.cdpn.io/105814/">     Thanks for the help!

Good call on the base tag. It never occurred to me that I could use it for my CodePen assets. Thanks for pointing that out!
