I can't upload my background-image from my FTP to my website

I am stuck trying to set a background-image for the header on my website. Nothing loads. My hosting has disabled linking images via an external URL, so I've put the image on Filezilla, that also doesn't work.

I have copied the image path from the FTP and pasted that in my html file which didn't work. I have also tried to copy code I found in tutorials, didn't work. Whether it's the code or the FTP, I can't figure it out.

Let's say you make a map in your FTP account, we name this map Test for now. You open the map Test and you upload a file index.html. You also upload an image in the map Test. So you have a map named Test, in the map 2 files, one index.html and image.jpg.

When you want to use this image in your index.html file you just write the simple code <img src="image.jpg"/>. This should upload the image. You visit by the link: www.yourhosting/ftpname/Test/index.html

EDIT:

NOTE: You should work online, not on your local host. As I can see youre already doing this by uploading on FileZilla.
