Why isn't image showing up?

I added the correct tag to allow the image from my files to view but it is not showing up. Did I do something wrong?

  <ul>
      <li>
        <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
      </li>
 </ul>

HI Brice,

It does look correct based on the screenshot that you provided. With only that info, a shot in the dark thought is to double check two things: 1st - that the photo is actually in the folder called 'img' and the folder name is correct. 2nd - confirm once more that the spelling of the image title is correct (example, it is not numbers_01.jpg)

Hope this helps.

You could also check if the path to the file is correct (right directory) and if the file format is correct.

Or check that your index.html file is not inside your img folder, to make sure your tree structure of your files is correct.
