HTML How to Make a Website Creating HTML Content Organize with Unordered Lists

i am slightly confused as to how i keep screwing up

adding just the image. Do i need to not put href=" in front of it?

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>
        </li>
        <li></li>
        <li></li>
      </ul>
    </section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

Kevin, If you only want to add an image, then just the source tag is fine. If you want to hyperlink it, then you would also need the href tag...

<a href="img/picture1.jpg"><img src="img/picture1.jpg" alt=""></a> <!-- this would add a pic with link -->
<img src="img/picture2.jpg" alt=""> <!-- this would add only an image, no hyperlink -->

I hope that helps.

Edit - Good catch Samuel! Fixed for clarity.

Tod,

You left out a quotation mark at the end of your href.

Kevin, you should use src to include images to the page.

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