Bigger pop up display

Hi wonderful people, after following Nick's tutorial in his files, I had no problem in changing from jpg files to svg files. the weird things happen after I tested it out in my website.

in the example provided when he changes:

          <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg" class="magnific">
          <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
          <p>Experimentation with color and texture.</p>
          </a>

to

          <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg" class="magnific">
          <img src="assets/numbers-01-preview.jpg" alt="">
          <p>Experimentation with color and texture.</p>
          </a>

I noticed he doesn't change the

          <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg" class="magnific">

he only changes

         <img src="assets/numbers-01-preview.jpg" alt="">

When I did the same to my own files, suddenly the pop up display stopped working. it couldn't find the images. It only worked when I changed the

         <a href =""> 

to where the assets folder is. anyone know why?

I also noticed my pop up images are little smaller than Nick's images even tho my files and resolutions bigger. Please have a look at: http://www.thesite.site for reference.

I had to change

<a href="img/borobudur_web.jpg" class="magnific"> <img src="assets/borobudur_web.jpg" alt=""> <p>Borobudur - Central Java - Indonesia</p> </a>

to:

<a href="assets/borobudur_web.jpg" class="magnific"> <img src="assets/borobudur_web.jpg" alt=""> <p>Borobudur - Central Java - Indonesia</p>

to get it works here is the code I tweaked.

<!DOCTYPE html> <html>
