I am having trouble adding images in this section. I seem to have all the correct coding down, but cannot move on

I am having trouble adding images correctly in the practice phase of this section. I feel like I have everything down correctly, but it will not let me move forward. I have even checked it with my page i have been creating while following along. What am I doing wrong on this page?

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">
            <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">  
            <p></p>
          </a>
        </li>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg">
            <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
            <p></p>
          </a>
        </li>
        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-06.jpg">
             <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">
            <p></p>

Hi Dan,

Step 2 instructs you to add the images without any links and the alt tags blank. So, your section div should look like this

<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 challenge, there is no need for link tags.

What you did here isn't what is required: 

        <li>
          <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
            <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">  
            <p></p>
          </a>
        </li>

There is also NO need for the paragraph tag to be included.

<p></p>

The wrapping container should be the SECTION tag, nested inside of this should be an unordered list. The List items should each include a different image.

So the code should be as such : 

   <!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><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>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

Cheers, Taki
