What directory?

I need help with finding the image 'cupcake.jpg'. It says it's in a directory but I don't know what that is.

Hi Sha-Asia,

For the code challenge you don't need to find the image. The challenge is simply telling you where it is so that you can come up with the correct path. You can assume the image exists where they say it does.

A directory is a folder. You may be able to find that image in your assets directory.

A directory is a folder structure. In most of the projects, images are located in the "img" folder.

Try changing the path to "img/cupcake.jpg". This goes in the folder named "img" and looks for the file "cupcake.jpg".
