HTML How to Make a Website Creating HTML Content Add Image Gallery Content

Images don't show up on their own--only when clicking the caption.

My personal images aren't showing up in the site on their own, only when I click on the captions (which aren't yet edited to fit the pictures.) I can't spot any problems in the code...

Can you post the link to your issue and the code in your index.html please!?

Thanks!

The title of your .jpg enclosed within your img src does not match the title of your .jpg within your href links.

Change:

<li> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> <img src="img/number-01.jpg" alt=""> <p>Experimentation with color and texture.</p> </a> </li>

To:

<li> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> <p>Experimentation with color and texture.</p> </a> </li>

Basically, add an 's' to "number" within your img src.

Isobel Coen not sure if you have the same issue as this as you never posted any code, however, let us know if you resolved the issue and/or if this worked for you.

Thanks,
