Where are the url's and names of the images?!

Does anyone know where in the project files are the url's and names of the images to make the 8 portfolio pieces in this tutorial? The tutorial says they are in the project downloads but all I can find are the images themselves - there seems to be no file with the links and alternative text (i.e. names) of the files....? I'm so frustrated as I've got a limited amount of time to complete these tutorials and just can't do this one without the links... Carole

Thank you for your answer, Nick - but the images are actually hosted online (tumblr) although the images themselves are in the project downloads. The tutor inputs the first link about 2mins 22seconds into the video tutorial and then tells us to input the 8 other portfolio pieces ourselves using the images and links in the project downloads. I've actually just managed to find the other images on tumblr by using the link the tutor inputted and tracing back from that link to the folder that has the other images in also, and copying the links for each image(!) but it would have been so much easier if the links had been in the project downloads as the tutor said they were!!!!! But thanks again for answering!

Hey Carole Nissen I tried to find the exact challenge that you needed to fulfill, but from your description it sounds like when you link to the files through HTML and CSS you need to use their relative path:

<img src="img/wordpress.jpg" />

body { background-image: url('img/background.png'); }

Unless the image is already hosted online (you can use an absolute link such as this), then you have to use a relative path from your .html file to the image file.

Let me know if that was confusing.
