Check the path on your image files. Make sure they are pointing to the correct folder.
Look rich in content. Plan on looking more later.

Your images are in "images"? the path is: images/images/home_p6.gif I think maybe there is one too many images? Also I would rename them without the _ if it was mine.

Hi, Elaine,
I think that when pictures fail to load, at least you get a reminder of what the site looks like to those who don't see graphics (for various reasons  ). And that always impresses on me the need to use good alt-text equivalents for said graphics.
http://www.elainebeardsley.com/plays_plays_plays_plays_plays_pl.htm has a long scroll. Consider breaking it, and any other long pages, up with bookmarks.
Ans as Gil said, I think it would be a good idea to eliminate spaces (_) in page URLs. I think it would be good to cut them down to size too. I try to keep page names down to about 8 or 10 letters before the .htm (or .html, .asp, .xml, whatever). This will make it easier for you to keep things organized later on.

Elaine,
On the long scrolling pages, a simple link to the top of the page sould help the viewer.
Simply type the words "To the top", select the words, choose Hyperlink, and in the Create Hyperlink dialog box, type "#top" (without the quote marks) in the URL field. Then choose OK.
Time consuming, but it will work to solve the image problem. In page view, select the Images folder, then Choose Import from the File menu.
In the Import dialog box, click the Add File button, and specify the images you wish to import. Once all have been imported, open the page, click the image that you see and choose Pictures from the Insert menu. Replace all of them in this manner and Publish your site. This will correct all links to the images.
On the page http://www.elainebeardsley.com/screenplays.htm I would place the link "back to the home page" at the bottom.
My wife says: "dinner", I'll be back.
Enjoy! It's your endeavor!
