offline coding troubles with image paths

i been coding online since i started my website cuz vscode legit does not work for linking images, but since i recently switched to using a static site generator im forced to adapt to the offline coding ways and boy do they dislike me. using an https link to add images? hell yeah brother, works super well, but trying to link images from your local files?? nope, nuh uh brother. i think i did everything right, background-image: url ("../images/placeholder.jpg"); with the proper filepath used, clicking on the suggested options vscode sends me, im even avoiding using spaces in my image names cuz i feel like the naming system between neocities and vscode might be different, but absolutely nothing shows on my localhost website, while when i've been coding online everything felt fine, i dunno has this happened to anyone?

(edit: when i link to an image in the same folder as my css sheet it works, but when i link to an image in the image folder that's outsite of my css sheet folder it doesnt)

A website using maximum storage capacity?

Has anyone ever seen a site that's reached the maximum storage limit?? I'd be very interested in that cuz recently i've been contemplating hosting every single picture i'd be using for my site on file garden. Pros is that it's the storage/bandwith cheatcode, cons is that it make your website less self reliant. However, i've learned that you don't need to save storage, cuz in general website and images included need very little space, so i'd really like to see a site that has challenged this fact to it's maximum and used as much bandwith as they could, tbh even at 500mB i'd consider that a feat

LA GIRL white foundation mixing pigment being cakey, flakey, and unreliable??

Hey people!! I'm looking for help as a dry skin kinda guy. I've been into gothic make ups and been using la girl white foundation mixing pigment as my foundation, no mixing required. However it's been making me look really really awful with how dry, flakey and cakey it makes my skin look. I've tried moisturizing before with a moisturizing cream, or applying aloe vera soothing and hydrating dollar store primer but it's the same result as applying the foundation raw. Also it's goes away so easily with one single touch of the fingers.

I dont do make up everyday so i'm asking for a rather simple solution, like maybe a better hydrating product to put on directly before putting the make up on? Or a finishing product.

I hope this is the right subreddit to ask! If not please direct me to a better one for alternative make ups?

Looking into free ressources on art conservation/restauration, i have been directed to the free digital magazine econservation, their site doesnt work so i have been looking for archives but have trouble finding more than one, if anyone reading this is in possession of their publications, could they share it? their facebook page hasnt been active since 2014

edit: literally had the idea one minute later to search through the wayback machine, yeah thats where you'll find them, is it okay to keep this post up? so if anybody finds themselves in the same situation as me, their search engine will direct them to this post

edit: adding link for those who want it: https://web.archive.org/web/20191116214937/http://e-conservation.org/

edit: issue 3, 4, and 5 are currently missing, so if anyone has them i'm still looking :P

edit: after some more digging it seems that there is no issue 3, 4 and 5 as their facebook lacks an announcement for it, however it seems that they have had an issue 25? it's probably a project that got rebooted, resulting in old issues and new ones, well, case closed. its an old project that hasnt been updated since 2014 so some of its knowledge is outdated anyway, and the people having partaken in it have probably moved onto other things, plus, there are many more other resources that are up to date to look at so i'll leave it at that
