You need to assign the class within the img tag, not in the stylesheet. .smaller-img already names that class in your style tags. To make the class of the image itself “smaller-img,” you need to add class="smaller-image" within the image tag itself.
Assigning classes like this allows for more control over your code; If you just want to make all images share a CSS attribute, you would just use img in the <style> tags, as has been done for h2 and p in the example code.
Thank you MoeMoeKyun for responding to me. I have tried many different ways to add the img element with the class=“smaller-image” When I run the test this is what it says, Your
```element should have the class
```smaller-image
```. Your image should be 100 pixels wide. this is what the code looks like now.
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lobster" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<style>
.red-text {
color: red;
}
h2 {
font-family: Lobster, monospace;
}
p {
font-size: 16px;
font-family: monospace;
}
.smaller-image {
width: 100px;
}
<img class="smaller-image"https://cdn.freecodecamp.org/curriculum/cat-photo-app/relaxing-cat.jpg/>

In the <style> tags, you only need .smaller-image { width: 100px; } That code creates the class .smaller-image and assigns the style to that class which is width: 100px. You then need to tell the computer to apply the class .smaller-image to the particular image later in your code’s main body, which applies the style rules to that image. You’re done with the stylesheet; Now you have to go down to the code that displays the image itself. That’s where you apply class="smaller-image", to tell the computer to apply the style rules of .smaller-image to that particular image. The code within your style tags that says <img class="smaller-image"https://cdn.freecodecamp.org/curriculum/cat-photo-app/relaxing-cat.jpg/> isn’t doing anything, and can freely be deleted.
A hint: The <a> tags in your <main> section contain your <img> element. Apply the class to the img there. Observe the <p> tag directly above the <a> tag for an example, line 19 in the default challenge.
I hope this helps and gives a better understanding of how classes work in HTML! Good luck!
