Hi Katlego,

  • You need to remove <a> tag.. the challenge don't ask for it.. even if it does, you forgot to close the tag with </a>

so it would become like this - for example - :

<a href="numbers-02.jpg">
<img src="numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
</a>
  • Second, the images are located in the root folder that's where index.html file is located.. so you don't put img/ before linked images as it will not appear because they are not there..

Final Solution

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>
    </header>
    <section>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <img src="numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
          <img src="numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
          <img src="numbers-06.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
      </ul>
    </section>
