Help with challenge 1.

So I was doing the challenge and I thought I had the right method but clearly I do not. What am I missing? Thanks for taking the time to help.

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
img [title="avatar"] {
    border-radius: 50%;
  border: 1px solid black;
}
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Selectors</title>
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
  <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Nunito:400,300' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="base.css">
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
    <div id="container">
        <form class="form-contact">
        <img src="avatar.png" title="avatar" alt="">

          <label for="un">Username:</label> 
          <input type="text" id="un">

        <label for="pw">Password:</label>
        <input type="password" id="pw">

          <input type="submit" value="Sign up">
        </form>
    </div>
</body>
</html>

A space between two selectors creates a descendant selector, where the the one on the left is a containing element, and the one on the right is the actual target. But here, both selectors pertain to the same element, so there should be no space.
