Can't see images

So I've checked everything and I can't seem to see the images when I refresh. It just gives me a box with a question mark. Please help.

Please try using proper markdown. (Surround your code with at the start and at the end.)

Not quotes to post your code. That had me confused for a while too. You have to use the same key with the tilde(~) on it. I was using single quotes to try and post code for like a half hour. Also, before I even see your code, did you download the project files and drag them to the bottom left of the workspace?

Oh okay :-)

I did drag them to the bottom left, but it did give me an error message as well. It said "upload error, please try again by selecting all the files in the directory." So I ended up opening the folder and selecting all the files in the directory and then I dragged them over to the bottom and it worked that way. So then I followed the video and as I tried to add the images in the code, it didn't come up and just gives me the blue box w/ question mark. I included the link below and also the code to one of the images.

I figured it out guys! The images and the pictures are now showing! I guess the src wasn't correct. I basically just started all over. Thanks for your help!
