Hi,

This won't work:

<img src="C:\Users\Aji\Desktop\PROJECT MATERIALS\aby\Autoweb\Photos\Carlot 2.jpg" width="250" height=250"/>

That's because you're attempting to reference a location directly on your disk, and the ArcGIS.com application can't reach into your machine to 'see' these files. Desktop can do it because it's installed on the same machine where these image files are. 

In order to make this work the way you want it to work, you're going to need to host these images on a web hosting service and provide links to them. Since you already have an account, I'd suggest hosting these images as content under your ArcGIS.com account. You could also use Flikr or similar. Here's a blog that discusses this:

I do greatly appricate ur timely response and your advice has been highly helpful.

thanks so very much the old method i was using, the challenge am facing now is since i hosted it and i did copy the link (https://usmanadio.maps.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/8df15e4f0bbc4ae2b7426351da471153/data) from the bottom right corner to my feature attributes and uploaded them on the arcgis online it worked but the image or picture sizes are very small.

please kindly help on how do i increase the picture sizes to fit in the PopUp sizes. though after coping the link i also tried this method i saw on Youtube
