Quizz question #2. When I enter that in the body tags it's wrong. What am I doing wrong?

Based on your code, it appears as though you're forgetting an end quote. Put another quote " after cupcake.jpg, and close the bracket.

I have put the other quotation " after jpeg, and it still won't work.

 <!DOCTYPE HTML>
 <html>
   <head>
     <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
     <title>Smells Like Bakin' Cupcake Company</title>
   </head>

   <body>
     <img src="img/cupcake.jpeg" />
   </body>
 </html>

It's telling me that I need to double-check my image path?

Try changing the abbreviation of your picture format.

Replace "jpeg" with "jpg."

Sorry, I should have mentioned that in my previous comment.

Using 'jpg' instead of 'jpeg' worked. Thank you!

To add to @Dave already excellent advice ...

It's telling me that I need to double-check my image path?

Part of the image path is using the exact file name.

I also had trouble with this challenge. My original line was:

<img src="img\cupcake.jpg">

It turned out I needed a forward-slash instead of a back-slash. I was put off track because I'd done the same thing in my "follow along" index.html file and my image showed up just fine in Chrome.

The simple correction I needed was:

<img src="img/cupcake.jpg">

Hopefully that'll help if someone else has the same problem.
