Well as for the images missing, it is probably because you forgot the " after diablo.html.

and as for your webpage, i hope this is just a test because there are quite a few errors with the site.

just to help you along if it is not a test page;

Missing Opening and ending <head> tag
Missing Doctype (http://validator.w3.org/docs/help.html#faq-doctype)
New Standard HTML doesn't allow anything to be included into the <body> tag, so BGCOLOR would need to be put into CSS
Instead of doing <td <a href= i might suggest that you just to this
<td><a href="link.html"><img src="img"></a></td>
Instead of having two tables, have it combined as one table and put the colspan="number of columns to span" into the top row's <td>
All <td> tags need to be closed with a </td> tag.

Like i said, i hope this is just a test. because i think the page would be much more HTML Friendly and up to web standards if yo do something like this

CODE

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

       <tr>
                  <td colspan="5"><img src="images/top.jpg"></td>
           </tr>

            <tr>
                    <td><a href="index.html"><img src="images/home.gif" alt="Home"></a></td>
                    <td><a href="wow.html"><img src="images/WoW.gif" alt="WoW"></a></td>
                    <td><a href="css.html"><img src="images/css.gif" alt="CSS"></a></td>
                     <td><a href="diablo.html"><img src="images/diablo.gif" alt="Diablo"></a></td>
                     <td><a href="www.phpbbplanet.com/gamingalliance><img src="images/forms.gif" alt="Forums"></a></td>
            </tr>
</table>

You missed a > after the first TR, and I think you'll probably need a TD around the img too?

Actually, you've missed a few > at the links bit, a " after diablo, and also needed to finish the TD tags. Coding can be oh so annoying, but you have to get it all right

I've highlighted the areas that you missed

CODE

<html>
<title>Gaming Alliance - Next Generation Of Gamers Today</title>
<body bgcolor="#000000">
<table>
<tr><td><img src="images/top.jpg"></td></tr>
</table>

<table><tr>
<td> <a href="index.html"><img src="images/home.gif"></a></td>
<td> <a href="wow.html"><img src="images/WoW.gif"></a></td>
<td> <a href="css.html"><img src="images/css.gif"></a></td>
<td> <a href="diablo.html><img src="images/diablo.gif"></a></td>
<td> <a href="www.phpbbplanet.com/gamingalliance><img src="images/forms.gif"></a></td>
</tr></table>

Edit: Can't do BB code in code tags, duh

Here's an example one:

<td> <a href="diablo.html"><img src="images/diablo.gif"></a></td>
