Make sure you do not add space after img element, so your code should look like this - img[title="avatar"] {border-radius:50%;} - Good luck!

I did this problem numerous times. My preview of my code worked perfectly every time except the first time when I used 50px instead of 50%. It kept marking my code as incorrect because I had a space in it it didn't like. This is the thing that is holding me back in coding. It finally accepted my code when I went to treehouse community and removed the space.

I had the same exact problem!!

I had that same problem. Really frustrating.

After reading this I figured it out, the issue was the space between "title" and the "=" sign.

img[title="avatar"] { border-radius: 50%; }

So essentially here your targeting the img element and then selecting the title attribute with the value of "avatar". "<img src="avatar.png" title="avatar" alt="">"

So something like this...

img[title="avatar"] { border-radius: 50%; }

Also, here is a great Treehouse resource that clarifies all CSS Selectors. It's a bit more stream-lined than MDN's selector page. Just be aware, you'll need to use "" marks when selecting things like

img[alt="avatar"]{}

The examples, for some reason, don't include these.

img[title="avatar"]{ border-radius: 50%; }

watch out for the space between img and [

img[title="avatar"]{

border-radius:50%;

}

img [title="avatar"] { border-radius: 50%; }

Can someone tell me what is wrong with what I did above? It doesnt accept my answer.

img[title="avatar"] { border-radius: 50%; }
