Image Assets are not being stored in Resources

Sorry, I think I am explaining this incorrectly. I added a perch:content of type image. Now, when I go into that template, I can upload images, but they are not showing up on site. On my site, it's showing that it's pulling from resources, but I can't see the images that I uploaded in that folder.

Health check

Perch is up to date
PHP 5.3.20 is very out of date.
More info
MySQL 5.1.61-log is up to date
Image processing available

<!--Template-->

<ul> <li><a href="https://<perch:content id="programlink" type="text" label="Program Link" />"><perch:content type="image" id="avatar" label="Program Image"/><perch:content id="programs-list-item" type="text" label="list-item" required="true"/></a></li> </ul>

Multiple sizes. I've tried a few different ones. What are the sizes it needs to be?

The Assets that I am uploading are not showing up in the Resources folder, which is where the site is trying to upload them from.

Thank you for your patience. I don't quite understand my own problem well enough to explain it intelligently.

I figured it out! I didn't know that I had to put an image tag around it. I'm definitely still "rookie" status!
