The challenge is telling me to add alt text to my twitter link. <img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt"Twitter Logo">

The challenge won't let me move on and I'm pretty sure this is correct.

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>
          <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
      </ul>
    </section>
    <footer>
      <img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt"Facebook Logo">
      <img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt"Twitter Logo">

</html>

Hi Douglas,

You always have to add equal ( = ) beside image attribute, for example: alt = "Facebook Logo"

    <footer>
      ...... alt"Facebook Logo">
      ...... alt"Twitter Logo">
      </footer>

You are welcome!

Happy Coding :)
