Hi Vincent,

It's always a good idea to have a link to the code challenge you're asking about so others can review it.

If you use the "Get Help" button on the challenge page then your question will automatically be linked to the the challenge.

This is the challenge I think you're on: http://teamtreehouse.com/library/responsive-images/image-delivery-with-srcset-and-sizes/using-srcset-2

You have added an "img" sub-folder path to your images which wasn't there in the starter code.

<div class="profile-image">
            <img
              srcset="photo-@1x.jpg 1x"
              src="photo-@1x.jpg"
              alt="Photograph of a flower."
              />
          </div>

The way that you have added your 2nd image is correct but you need to remove the "img" sub-folder from both of your image paths. The images are in the same location as the html file.

Did you try putting the src first and then the srcset? all I can think of.

<div>  
    <img
          src="photo-@1x.jpg"
          srcset="img/photo-@2x.jpg 2x,
                      img/photo-@1x.jpg 1x"
         alt="Photograph of a flower."/>
</div>

Hi,

it may be a browser compatibility issue, srcset is new to html5 and not supported on all browsers.

See http://caniuse.com/#search=srcset

Which code challenge is this, specifically? It would help if I could see what you're trying to do.

"Using Srcset" coding challenge in that course. I just entered what I thought the answer was and got a Bummer message .... I didn't change anything and submitted the same answer a few times and eventually it just went through to the next video and gave me the tick. (strange)
