I still am having problems getting past this exercise challenge. How do I move past the challenge of completing Facebook and twitter links?

the bummer is "did you put a link around the twitter logo image?"

I see you have images wrapped in your links but also have images outside of them. You should only have the wrapped images in the HTML.

Maybe it doesn't like that you used the same link for both. I just used facebook's and twitter's home pages for the links and it passed me.

Looks like you have 2 facebook links. Make one twitter. For the twitter part change the link to twitter.com/nic.young.3950.
