Error message that says the conditions of task 1 are not valid now

I completed task 1 and went on to task 2. I followed the video and as I was finishing the code for task 2 it gives an error message saying that the conditions of task 1 are no longer valid ?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>

Hi Dennis,

Probably there were some confusion here. 

    <section>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
        </a>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg">
        </a>
          <a href="img/numbers-12.jpg">
        </a>    
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-09.jpg">
       </a>
        </li>
      </ul>    
    </section>

Let me explain clearly

Task 1 - Create only three lists items

    <section>
      <ul>
        <li></li>
        <li></li>
        <li></li>
     </ul> 
    </section>

Task 2 - Inside three lists items, use images for number 01, 02, 06 with alt attributes blank. No hyperlinks like < a href > 

    <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>

Hope that helps. :)

The original code also has issue with the list.

<!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>
          <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
        </a>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg">
        </a>
</li>
<li>
          <a href="img/numbers-12.jpg">
        </a>    
</li>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-09.jpg">
       </a>
        </li>
      </ul>    
    </section>

</html>

My notes are not indented.
