I will add the code in one second, the challenge things that I do not have an alt description for the twitter logo in which I do. Can someone please tell me what is incorrect?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>

This should work: 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>
    </header>
    <section>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
      </ul>
    </section>
    <footer>
      <a href="facebook.com/?????">
        <img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="facebook">
      </a>
      <a href="twitter.com/?????">
        <img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="twitter">
      </a>

Hi Shain Jones , the problem is that there needs to be an equals sign between the alt attribute and it’s value. This should work:

<img src=“img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="facebook logo">
<img src=“img/twitter-wrap.png” alt=“twitter logo">

with everything else:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>
    </header>
    <section>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
      </ul>
    </section>
    <footer>
      <img src=“img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="facebook logo">
      <img src=“img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="twitter logo">

      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>

KW, I noticed that from the video you were right, but now it is acting as if I did not have the twitter img added correctly to begin with or from what you added. confused as to what is missing or wrong..
