316 PointsHello, in the learn to make a website course im up to making the gallery and when i link my own img it doesn't work.
these images are downloaded from my computer at home opposed to the images Nick Pettit has provided for me to download. i dont know the problem but i think this is where it begins.

Can you post your code on here for us to see? As long as your images from home are uploaded into the image folder in your workspace, you should be able to keep the same img src that Nick uses, as long as you are changing your file name.
<img src="img/your-image-file-name-here.jpg" alt="">
If you're doing all of that correctly and it still won't show, perhaps Workspaces only works with certain types of image formats? I'm not too sure.
Can you get Nick's images that are already in the Workspace to work correctly?
Good luck!
Mike

Make sure to close your header after the closing nav tag, too.
