When adding imagery to our site why do we use the <ul> tag specifically?Why not use another tag instead to add imagery?

Hey Kavi,

Welcome to coding at Treehouse!

To expand a little on what Jacob and Christopher said above, the ul tag creates an unordered list. By default this will simply allow you to create elements called list items in a bulleted list with li tags. While you could easily use other tags in most cases, the ul is an easy way to tell the browser that you have several elements that all have common attributes and these elements should be rendered in similar ways.

This becomes more of an issue when you would like to add style classes to your html elements with CSS. All list items will inherit attributes from their ul because the ul is what is called a parent element. By comparison, you would have to call every CSS class you wanted to apply on every p tag if you were to use them instead.

You will learn much more about the different html elements and the way they interact with CSS here at Treehouse. As you do, it will become easier to know which tags are most effective in each circumstance.

Hope this helps!
