I keep getting this error: [Make sure you include an image tag that displays "numbers-01.jpg".]

I watched the tutorial three times. What am I doing wrong? The image tag is in there

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

The images are there. You're correct. But you missed this line in the instructions: "Leave the alt attributes blank, and don’t add any captions or links. Just the images!". Every single one of your images has an anchor element (aka link) around it as denoted by the <a> tags. Try removing those and see if it works :smiley:

Hi Brian,

Sorry I could not answer sooner but Jennifer is correct to your section tag should look like below:

    <section>
      <ul>
        <li><img src="numbers-01.jpg" alt=""></li>
        <li><img src="numbers-02.jpg" alt=""></li>
        <li><img src="numbers-06.jpg" alt=""></li>
      </ul>
    </section>

For this particular course I have hosted the source code on GitHub to help any students when they need a reference to compare code to, there is also a live version with a little something else that should explain a little more of what is going on please take a look and let me know what you think.

Hope this helps Craig :)
