For the How to Make a Website track, my images appear as broken. My course content is a little different. I do have my images directory located in the same folder as index.html.

<section> <ul> <li> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> <p>Experimentation with color and texture.</p> </a> </li>
