Hi,

On the first html lesson in the sublime text editor where I make begin the process of starting the Smells Like Bakin page. I am unable to get the smells like bakin gif to show up and I am not sure why. I am hoping someone can help me out with this I would really appreciate it.

Hi James! When including your pictures, they are usually in seperate files.

You should always triple check your paths to make sure that they are correct.

So, if the image is in the Images folder, then the image tag should look like this
<img src="Images/picture.png" alt="your picture" />

Hope that helps.

Hi Joseph,

what's it supposed to look like I think your forgot to link the path you where talking about.

Hey James, check this post. Someone asked a similar question. Hope this helps!

Hi Yamil,

I figured it out. I have another question though. I am stuck on the 4th part of the quiz where I need to code in this information, Add the items "About", "Cupcakes", and "Locations" to the unordered list. My html code looks like the code below not sure what I am doing wrong.

<img src="img/cupcake.jpg"
<ul>    
<li>About</li>
<li>Cupcakes</li>
<li>Locations</li>
<li><li>
</ul>

Thats awesome you were able to figure it out! Looking at the code you posted it appears the "img" tag was not closed properly. Also the "li" tag isn't closed properly either. Tags that are not closed properly is a common problem web developers run into all the time, so don't be discouraged!

Hi Yamil,

thank you for pointing this out to me I manage to figure out what went wrong with your help.

Thanks again.

Anytime!
