a broken image is when the image doesn't apppear, and you see a big red X (like the X from the "close current tag" and "close all tags" buttons when you add a message to this forum) instead of the real image.
you have linked the images to your harddrive, but then you are the only one that can see them. In order to let them show to all the visitors you need to upload your image to your own space online and link them with that adres
now is your adres:
file:///C:\Documents and Settings\Rachel\My Documents\My Pictures\leegrant1.jpg
but you need to have something like this: http://www.angelfire.com/crazy/leegrantfansite/leegrant1.jpg

Webdesign takes time! everybody on this forum was on that stage where you are now, exploring everything :) and we are here to help ;)
the pictures beside "UPDATES" don't work, and the pictures below "joined" don't work.
If you upload those pictures to your angelfire.com and just link them to that adress everything should work fine
because you linked to your harddrive you are the only one who can see it because it is linked to your files, wich nobody else has in that order like you linked it.

everything that is linked to your file:\\\my documents etc doens't work for other visitors, only for you.
The best way is to collect all those pictures and copy them in one folder on your harddrive so that you know wich one to upload and wich not :)
Good luck !
