I included the image using the <img> element and when I previewed from the workspace, it just showed little image icon.

Try deleting the white spaces around the = sign so it looks like href=" instead of href = " and same for alt="" Hope that works

Hello Akshar, did you make sure you placed your images into the img folder before trying to show them on your webpage?

Check your syntax. I had the same problem and realized I had put <img src="img/number-01.jpg"alt"">. "number" should be "numbers". Always check for syntax errors. For me, it is always something simple.
