I'm stuck on the Image Source part of the Code Challenge. Syntax seems ok, images show in preview, still error msg.

Could it be a problem with the image file? Do I have to load it on this computer for challenge to run. This may be difficult, seeing as I'm using a Library computer

It looks like you're missing your closing </a> tags.

I'm in the same track! I went back to the challenge to see what you're working with and it seems to me that they don't ask you to add the link elements. Try deleting the link elements above each of the image elements and see if it lets you through! If the images are showing up in the preview I would guess whatever detects the correct code is being stopped by your link tags.

Like this

 <li>
              <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
                <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">

            >>>  </a>  <<<<
            </li>
