In a Ruby on Rails project by default the root of the HTML source for the server is the public directory. So your link would be:

<img src="images/rss.jpg" alt="rss feed" />

But it is best practice in a Rails project to use the built in helper:

<%= image_tag("rss.jpg", :alt => "rss feed") %>

That will create the correct image link plus if you ever add assert servers, etc it will work with those.

Anything in the public folder is accessible at the root path     so change your img tag to read    lt img src   images rss jpg  alt  rss feed    gt    If you wanted to use a rails tag  use this    lt    image tag  rss jpg    alt   gt   rss feed     gt

simple just use the img tag helper  Rails knows to look in the images folder in the asset pipeline  you can use it like this   lt    image tag  image jpg    gt
