If html image tags are needed, how do I go about adding the code, and what do I write? I'm not really all that familiar with coding.
Sorry, this is NOT the place for Basic HTML training.

Why not open a few working EPUB (with images ) and see what they did?
The Tweak (T key) will allow you to explode a EPUB and see the pieces.
These can be opened with a programming language friendly, text editor like Notepad++ or Notepad (without the tag highlighting)

Sigil (I recommend getting the older 5.1 (5.2 and 5.3 are having crash problems). 5.1 has Add file issues and you must use the File New Menu, not the book browser.)
