Compass URL Helper

Hello everyone. I'm a little confused on what exactly I need to do with my background property when using the compass url helper. 

.featured-icon {
  background-image: image-url('mixin-monster.png');
}

The message is suggesting that I "make sure I am setting the background property."

Hi Andrew,

It looks like the only problem is that the start code used the background property and you switched it to background-image
