I can't figure out. How do I post images on my website. I want to call the images using the html <img> tag. Where do I save the images on the server and how do I call them? I tried saving the images in the "files" directory and then do <img src="files/imgName" />. It didn't work. I also tried the image modules, it uploads the images and saves them as nodes (e.g. http://www.imgsite.com/drupal/node12). Now how do I append these images (or nodes) appropriately in the webpages I want? The image_attach module is enabled as has the required permissions granted from "Access Control" but doesn't give any options on how to attach the images appropriately on the webpages.

Use TinyMCE & IMCE to add images to posts rather.
IMCE will display a button in TinyMCE which'll launch a window from where you can browse your pc for images to upload.
Also make sure your "Files" folder is set to 777 - write & read -able.

there are multiple methods to handle images.

you aren't very descriptive in your post about your desires, but if you want the similest form of image handling, I'd say check out img_assist.module in the downloads area.

I thought he was quite clear in what he wanted to do.
I would also recommend the image assist module to, it might be included in the image module I'm not sure, I'm using d6.
