I have a test page at www.herbalrescuerecipes.com/test.php and although the icons have been uploaded my page doesn't display them.. just text??

Hello Phil.

You are using IE i guess.There is a problem with rendering the width and height attributes.
instead of using :

<img width="24" border="0" height="24" alt="Contact" src="icons/email.png">

Use:

<img src="icons/email.png" border="0" alt="Contact">

I also noticed that the icons didn't show when using icon finder unless I reopened them in fireworks then resaved them to a different directory
