HTML How to Make a Website Creating HTML Content Organize with Unordered Lists

Why does it say "Make sure you include an image tag that displays "img/numbers-01.jpg" when thats exactly what I wrote?

I'm on the "Organize with Unordered Lists" section, and I'm following an instruction that reads: "Inside the three new list items, add the following images from inside the img folder: "numbers-01.jpg", "numbers-02.jpg", and "numbers-06.jpg". Leave the alt attributes blank, and don't add any captions or links. Just the images!". However, I wrote the same lines (i think i did) that the demo showed, and yet it still says it's incorrect. Any help?

Hey Ryan!

It looks like your code is pretty spot on from the lesson. The problem is that you went just a little further than they asked you to in the question, and you added links to the images. In this challenge Nick just wants you to add the three images. Your code should look like this: </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>

Let me know if this helps!

Good Luck, Elena

Hello

Try to add only the img tags without the links. Because it says "don't add any captions or links. Just the images!".

All you need are the links to the images in the file tree, no other links needed! See elenap 's code.
