Have you close the img element?

<img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="Facebook Logo">
<img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="Twitter Logo">

Thank you for the response. After I submitted my question I too noticed the "-" after src which you kindly pointed out should be "=" instead. I went back into my work to double check to see and indeed my code shows "=" after src, not "-" which the example shows. I did the work again same exact code, and double checked my work and I'm still receiving an error.

No I have not closed it yet, as I'm only doing the step-by-step instructions that the code challenge is asking me to do. At this point the error message still reads, "Did you add the image for Twitter (img/twitter-wrap.png)? It seems to accept the Facebook img reference code as being correct but not the Twitter.

I think the error is the unclosed tag element.
