Task 1 doesn't work anymore?

I have created the unordered list with nothing in it in task 1 and passes it fine, then task 2 asks to place images in each of the items on the list. Once this is done, I get a message that says task 1 no longer works? ( Isn't that the point? ) Help please.

You have some nav tags inside your section tags which may be causing the error. 

<section>
  <ul>
    <li><img src="numbers-01.jpg"></li>
    <li><img src="numbers-02.jpg"></li>
    <li><img src="numbers-06.jpg"></li>
  </ul>

I think the problem is that you now have a nav tag inside your section tags. There is no reason to duplicate those.

<!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><img src="numbers-01.jpg"></li>
        <li><img src="numbers-02.jpg"></li>
        <li><img src="numbers-06.jpg"></li>
      </ul>

Thanks! It was the nav tags. I restarted the challenge and noticed that I copy pasted those in on the 2nd task. I'm starting to realize how minute the errors usually are.... Haha.
