I am stuck. I don't know why my img tags are not working to move onto the next step.

I am experiencing the following error:

Bummer! Make sure you include an image tag that displays "img/numbers-01.jpg".

Thanks for any help you are able to provide!

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>
    </header>
    <section>
      <ul>
        <li><a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"></a></li>

To display an image you need to use an img tag.

<img src="" alt=""/>

In your example you are using a tags.

I'm having this same issue, but my tags already look like that. What am I doing wrong?
