I can imagine what may be not working here, but generally avoid "it does not work", explain exactly what you observe.

Don't use "~/". Must be "./img/toolbar.Start.gif" or just "img/toolbar.Start.gif". Of course, make sure the sub-directory "img" is in the same directory where you have the page file with this code. In other words, use relative paths; relative to the location of the page using them.

I need the sub-directory "img" to be in root folder as it used by more than page in the project.
Thank you SAKryukov

The path is seems to be wrong. The easiest way to resolve this, Right click on the "Red Cross Icon" on the page ( Which is coming due to invalid path ) and check the what path it is taken. From there you will able to understand what is wrong. :)
