I found out that it's best practice to create a modules and themes folder in the sites/all/ directory.
I moved all my contributed modules to the new folder at sites/all/modules.
then i moved my theme to sites/all/themes.
(they were originally in the /modules and /themes folders)
I had specified a different image for the footer in my style.css file. I put the image in twilight/images folder. It was working, but now that i moved the (twilight) theme folder, the image doesn't display anymore. The file is still there, and the css code hasn 't changed. Just the relative location of the (twilight) theme folder has changed.
Tried clearing caches, no luck.
how do i get the images to show up again in the footer?
Edit:
I don't know what happened, but it fixed itself somehow... weird.
