The Challenge won't accept only my Facebook link I don't have another account to link. Can't use Pettit's right?

The Challenge says I have to use my own links to my accounts. I only have facebook and it worked but it won't accept the one account and is saying I'm not completing it. I can't use Pettits twitter account right?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>

      <a href="index.html">

I think it's because you need to wrap anchor tag out each image element that you've got.

But you don't need to worry about which accounts you link it too as the challenge says any link will work.

e.g. 

<a href=""><img src ="" /></a>

Hi there,

Any link should do the trick, try:

<a href="#"><img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="Facebook Logo"></a>

I went ahead and used his example for twitter and then my facebook page and this worked.
