Hello Pako.

I presume that you're stuck on the last task, as I see you've already added the <footer> and <section> tags.

In that case, you're on the right track but you've simply used the incorrect element. The question asks you to place the ul inside an element that represents a major section of navigation. This means we would use the <nav> tag.

So, simply replace...

    <header>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Work</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>            
    </ul>
     </header> 
    <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Portfolio!</h1> 
    <p>A site featuring my latest work.</p>

with...

    <header>
    <nav>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Work</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>            
    </ul>
    </nav>
    <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Portfolio!</h1> 
    <p>A site featuring my latest work.</p>
    </header>

Notice that I've also re-added the <header> tag before and after the ul, h1 and p elements, as that was the first task. Without this, the checker may return an error. Hope this helps! :)
