2,683 PointsI have not done this course yet, but from my professional experience it is never good to apply a style like this to an img tag. You usually want to be more specific, in this case I would target the class instead. See if that works for you!

10,110 PointsWhat exactly does it want you to set max-width 150px to? If It's the img selector you currently have 2 img selectors with 2 different max-width assigned. The max width code executed last in css will be the one that runs. So in this case for img selector it'll be the max-width: 100%;
If it's for the img selector delete the second max-width code.
