Images Suddenly not Showing When Browsing Articles Inside Same Joomla! Categories!

Took a while to dig my way through to find the answer to this tricky question:
Why do my images suddenly not show up when navigating between articles in sections/categories on my Joomla! site? Here you go!

Make sure this is in your configuration.php file :

var $Live_site='http://yourdomain.com';  - change to reflect your actual site. :)

Look in your .htaccess file. If yours is htaccess.txt - it needs to be renamed with the " . " before it SEF will work correctly ;)  

un comment the #Rewritebase in your .htaccess file  -- open .htaccess file and remove the " # " before the line above. If you have #mod_rewrite take the " # " away also. Activate SEF and mod_rewrite under global configuration in Joomla!.

Lastly, find the head tag in your Joomla! template editor - templates/edit html . Find the. <head> tag and this - <jdoc:include type="head" /> . Make it look like this below:

<base href="http://www.yoursite.com.br/" />
<jdoc:include type="head" />
<base href="http://www.yoursite.com.br/" />

Clean the site cache, purge/refresh cash in sh404sef component, rebuild your sitemap (I use Xmap so its super easy- click xmap, prefs, sitemap link)

Clean your browser cache. Load your site. Browse around till your hearts content! Hooray, visible images. Thanks to all the Joomla Heros! -- See the forum post in its entirety by following this link - http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=544&t=322357
