Hi Avery,

The entire string after src= in the img tag should be enclosed in quotation marks.

e.g.

<img src="../image.png">

Also note that the challenge is to go one level up and into a folder named img. So the img folder will need to be in the path before the filename.

Best of luck,

Eric

Eric can you tell me how to go one level up? I can't seem to find the example in the lecture.

Hi Avery,

going one level up is ../

Don't forget that the image folder img/ is one level up

So to get to yourfile in the image folder you would need ../img/yourfile

Cheers,

Eric
