Code Challenge: Organize with unordered lists

I have now been stuck on Item 2 of this code challenge for the past hour and am getting extremely frustrated. This is what it says:

Inside the three new list items, add the following images from inside the img folder: "numbers-01.jpg", "numbers-02.jpg", and "numbers-06.jpg". Leave the alt attributes blank, and don’t add any captions or links. Just the images!

I put in:

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

And this is how it responds:

Make sure you include an image tag that displays “img/numbers-01.jpg”
What am I doing wrong?!

It looks like your image elements need the file path changed to "img" instead of "image".

Also, while I'm not sure the anchor elements are necessary for that particular question, they do need the quotations closed after the file path on numbers-02 and numbers-06.

Looks like you need to use the image src "img", not "image". Try that? Also, you don't need to enclose those images in links -- I'm not seeing anywhere in the question that requires that? I've done a quick test of the challenge, and with those two fixes, it should work for you.

Try enclosing your code in three backticks (" ``` " before and after the code) so we can see it. We'll be able to help once we know what you are working with.

It looks like you've forgotten to close your quotes on the second two anchor tags. You have <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg>, should be <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg">. Same for the last link.
