ok, good. So let´s configure a httpstatic folder to your environment ?

Based on these two threads:

1. create a directory called `/home/pi/.node-red/static`. Of course, "static" could be named whatever you like
2. copy your photos into that directory
3. edit property `httpStatic` in your settings file (settings.js) to `/home/pi/.node-red/static`

```auto
    // When httpAdminRoot is used to move the UI to a different root path, the
    // following property can be used to identify a directory of static content
    // that should be served at http://localhost:1880/.
    //httpStatic: '/home/nol/node-red-static/',
      httpStatic: '/home/pi/.node-red/static',

```

1. restart Node-RED and watch in the initialization log if you see now the http static line
2. try to load a picture in the browser using

[http://127.0.0.1:1880/static/xxx.jpeg](http://127.0.0.1:1880/static/xxx.jpeg)
