You have img listed twice in your css.

The first had img with: max-width : 150px;

Then down lower you list img again with: max-width : 100%;

The second img tag is "cascading" over the first and causing your max-width to be 100% instead of the 150px.

Remove this second img and you should be good.

The wording is a bit misleading. It's asking you to target the image with the class of .profile-photo, not the img tag itself.

Redeclare using the class and you should be all good!

Sorry but using the img tag as the selector works. :dizzy:

It may "pass", but the intention isn't to set all images to that specific max-width, full border-radius, and margin spacing, just the user profile picture.

Hmm... I see. Didn't know that.

Yes, typically you would want to use the class for best practice. The img tag works in this as it is the only img, but Rich is correct for normal use.
