Hi there,

You are missing the a identifier in you selector where you are putting the .png files. By doing this, the images were in a different spot that what was being styled with the back-ground-repeat.

.contact-info li.phone a{                     /* added a */
  background-image: url('../img/phone.png');
}

.contact-info li.mail a{                        /* added a */
  background-image: url('../img/mail.png');
}

.contact-info li.twitter a {                   /* added a */
  background-image: url('../img/twitter.png');
}

Welcome to Treehouse and Keep Coding! :)
