What am I doing wrong here?

The error prompt just says "Make sure you include an image tag that displays "img/numbers-01.jpg".

I have the following between section tags:

<ul> <li> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> <p>1</p> </li>

<li> <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt=""> <p>2</p> </li>

<li> <a href="img/numbers-06.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt=""> <p>6</p> </li> </ul>

Thanks!

Currently, the only issue I'm aware of is that your <a> or anchor tag isn't wrapping the images to make them clickable as links. Try wrapping your images in the <a> tags and see if that resolves the issue.

Hi,

You look to be adding more than the challenge needs. You don't need the anchor tags wrapped around the image tags you add. The final code should look something like this:

<!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="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""></li>
        <li><img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt=""></li>
        <li><img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt=""></li>
      </ul>
    </section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

Hope that helps :)

Hi,

You're actually doing more than what the challenge is asking. Try this --> ... <ul> <li> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> </li> <li> <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt=""> </li> <li> <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt=""> </li> </ul>
