How do I get the challenge code checker to advance?

It claims I haven't added alt text, but I clearly have... I made sure I did it just like the video.

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

It's no problem because you're exactly right! There just needs to be an = sign in between the alt attribute and the beginning " and a space right after the src's value ^_^

      <img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="Facebook Logo">
      <img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="Facebook Logo">

Absolutely! Just post your questions on the main forums and many helpful students will help you. I'm up right now and browsing, so I'll help you. If you want to go ahead and post your question on the main forum, I'll help you out on your own post to keep this thread from getting sidetracked.
