unable to view image in the github readme file preview

Question

I am unable to view image in the preview of the readme file on github. I have created a folder "pics" and readme has following line:

![Image-1](pics/img-1.png)

but unable to get a link for the relative path, instead its just plain text, so image doesnt occur in prview

That seems to work, as illustrated in mark-anders/relative-image-url

Check in your case if you have a case issue (pics instead of Pics, or img-1.png instead of img-1.PNG), as commented here.
