Q.Next, add the image 'mike.png' located inside the 'img' folder to the background. We only want Mike to appear once, so follow it with a property and value that will not repeat the image. I put .box{ background-color:#387ABC; background-image:url('mike.png'); background-repeat:no-repeat; } what did I do wrong please?

In addition that document is containing many questions and answers, if there's a very specific one that provides an actionable suggestion, then linking to that is much more helpful.
