instead of nth-child you can use nth-of-type, which targets an element of a specific type. In this case the images alone

Replace :nth child selector to specific type for example: :nth-child(-n+3)

img:nth-of-type(3n+4) { clear: left; }

Hope this helps ;-0

img:nth-of-type(4) { clear: left; }

i put this but it says it's changing the expression in the selector.What's wrong?
