Javac Example.java didn't have any issues with the code but something went wrong as soon as you run it:
This is a new Treet: Exception in thread "main" java.util.MissingFormatArgumentException: Format specifier '%s'
at java.util.Formatter.format(Formatter.java:2519)

Also can someone show me how to link my code properly like other people's questions :]? I mean the snapshot works too but it seems like everyone posts their questions the other way.

54,971 PointsIn Treet.java you have a + instead of a comma before mDescription here:
@Override
public String toString () {
return String.format ("Treet: \"%s\" by %s on %s",
mDescription, mAuthor, mCreationDate);
}

To format code for the Community, you'll need to use Markdown. There is a Cheatsheet link above the Post button, or you can take the quick Markdown Basics Course here on Treehouse.
Hope you get it solved soon.
