[support] images not showing

[Pia Oliver]

I am adding some stuff, including Ubercart, to a site and have set it 
up as a dev site at Hostgator. As soon as it's ready it will become 
the "real live" site.

One issue I cannot figure out is why my images are not showing? I 
need some help please.

The temp URL is "http://50.22.80.44/~pia/" to the site and the links 
in the top menu work but not the bottom menu, nor do any of the, or 
very few, of the images show. In .htaccess I have tried to uncomment 
"RewriteBase" in several different ways but nothing helps. In 
"settings.php" I have " $base_url = 'http://50.22.80.44/~pia';" and 
have tried with this commented out also; no difference.

I  cannot find any other place where there is a system wide path or 
setting? I have experimented with permission settings on the 
"default" folder as well as the "settings.php" file; the settings.php 
is 0000 and it will  not take any other. the "default" folder is 
currently 744 ...

any ideas?

thanks,

Pia
