Src or href?

Bummer! Make sure you include an image tag that displays "img/numbers-01.jpg".

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Natalie Stebbins | My Drawings</title> </head> <body> <header> <a href="index.html"></a> <h1>Natalie Stebbins</h1> <h2>My Drawings</h2> </a> <nav> <ul> <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="about.html"></a>About</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav> </header> <section> <ul> <li> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> </a> </li> <li> <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg"> </a> </li> <li> <a href="img/numbers-06.jpg"> </a> </li> </ul> </section> <footer> <p>Ā© 2014 Natalie Stebbins.</p> </footer> </body> </html>

an img tag would use the "src" attribute. and an img tag. 

<a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"><img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="numbers 1"/><a/>

in the example above. the anchor tag is linking to the image itself using the href=" " but the <img src="/image.jpg"> is what will display your image.

Martin is correct, you are actually using two tags. One to display the image <img> wrapped in another tag that links to the actual picture <a href>.

<a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
    <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg">
</a>

The img tag uses src to indicate the location of the image to display and the hyperlink uses href to indicate the location the link should go to.
