Hi! Is it img-01.jpg, or numbers-01.jpg? Are they in the right directory?

Hi Anthony,

There is a key piece of information in the challenge instructions:

Leave the alt attributes blank, and don’t add any captions or links. Just the images!

It's tempting to want to do things similar to what was done in the videos, like wrapping your images in anchor tags, but the challenges are usually very explicit in what they are asking you to do. If you go outside of that, then you will likely encounter errors, even if the code you wrote is perfectly valid.

Good luck.
