Thats a prettty advanced book for a tutor list reader...
but its a good un too.

Its just a path to a directory.
../
means the directory/folder above the current one.
gifs/
means the folder called 'gifs'
So if yu had a folder called 'home' with two subfolders
called 'scripts' and 'gifs' and you were running your
program in the scripts folder, then '../gifs/' would
be a reference to the 'home/gifs' folder.

The image gifs need to be in a folder called 'gifs'
located on the same level as the folder where your
script is running.

But that should have worked too... Unless this is a
web application in which case the "full path" should
start at your home page folder.
