i think you made mistake, 

        ```html
        <li> img src ="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt=""></li> to <li> <img src ="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt=""></li>
        ```

Hi Didier,

I suggest you search the forums before posting a question, this has been answered a lot of times and could give you a faster solution! :)

The images should not be in the img folder during the code challenge.

The following code should be:

<ul> 
            <li><img src="numbers-01.jpg" alt=""></li>
            <li><img src="numbers-02.jpg" alt=""></li>
            <li><img src="numbers-06.jpg" alt=""></li>
</ul>

Make sure you pay attention to spaces as well.

Hope this helps! :D

Hi Didier,

This challenge doesn't specify that the images are in an img folder. Assume they are in your root folder.
