Why is my image not showing. Everything is the same as what Nick wrote in the video.

380 PointsThis is what my code reads: Under <section> why is the <a href> not displaying that image (numbers-01.jpg") when I preview the page?

Seems as though you have two closing "a" tags. That may be the issue.

380 PointsOk I got it! The issue was my folder was named IMG. and I named the href and src tags: img the issue being the capitals in the folder.

10,660 PointsAt first I think i had the same problem. Make sure you are entering the correct folder name. In the video Nick's folder was named "img". In the workspace it's "image". Make sure you are using the correct name to grab the pictures from.

380 PointsCarlos, right now my line of text reads: <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> Should it be: <img src="image/numbers-01.jpg" at="">

380 PointsGood eye on the 2 closing "a" tags but that did not fix the problem. do you see the pictures when you preview the page?

3,706 PointsI would of thought it was the extra a tag - I did the course and could see the pictures. You did down load the files right? and then upload them in the right file? Make sure you put them in the img file - by default the files are 'dropped' into the root file you will have to move each one to right location.
