HTML How to Make a Website Creating HTML Content Organize with Unordered Lists

don't know what I'm doing wrong now

talking the challenge for Organizing with Unordered Lists in HTML and it says to add the images from the folder in the list items I create. Not sure why it is wrong, as far as I can tell I am doing it right. Looks like this

<section> <ul> <li> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> </li> </ul> </section>

What is wrong with this?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>
    </header>
    <section>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
        </li>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg">
        </li>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-06.jpg">
        </li>
      </ul>
    </section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

Hi Jeremiah, It looks like you swapped your image tags for hyperlink tags. Take a peak at the code below:

 <li>
      <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg">
    </li>
    <li>
      <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg">
    </li>
    <li>
      < img src="img/numbers-06.jpg">
    </li>
  </ul>

I hope this solves you problem.

Happy coding!

^This. Use the "src" attribute (instead of the "href" attribute) to point to the image file. :)
