Can you show the screenshot of the lower part of the left sidebar so we can see what’s missing?

From what I see currently, you didn’t apply .green-thick-border class to your cat photo.

Just apply your .thick-green-border to your image. Like this:

<img class="smaller-image thick-green-border" ...

I was having issues with this too. One question I have, is why is the bit where you tell the program you want a thick green border below the block of code where you modify the attributes of the border? It feels like I’m describing it before I’m ordering it…if that makes sense. Shouldn’t I be indicating that I want a thick green border before I say what type of thick green border I like? This set of lessons is very confusing.

cmsheridan, I’m not sure that I understood your question well, but in any programming language you have to declare something before you call it. Otherwise the computer won’t know what you are calling. Class name is only the reference the the full description of a class.

I was trying to put class= with the thick green border. But this worked for me

not sure what Im doing yet with replying I guess
but in your image class="smaller-image thick-green-border "

To use 2 class in image your code should like this

<img class="smaller-image thick-green-border"
