Inside the <footer> element, wrap the Facebook and Twitter images with links to your own accounts.

Is my code correct?

You are missing a set of quotes for twitter icon and twitter is spelled wrong. yours says alt=twiiter icon"

try alt="twitter icon" hope this helps!

In addition to the correct comments of the other community members, I guess you don't want to separate the attribute from the equal sign in the src="img/yourimage.png" bit.

In general, a rule of thumb I've learned (that at least has worked for me so far) is to never separate anything in the attribute="value" bits of code like alt="facebook icon" or other similar ones.

HTH!

not sure you need the first two img src's in the footer element, because you already have them within the href.
