I am having trouble with the src aspect of this challenge. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions on how to fix this problem?

   **Your code so far**


<h2>CatPhotoApp</h2>

I don’t think that’s the url that the instructions tell you to use.

yeah its not I tried to go on the “get a hint” page and one of the other people said to try that. The picture did work but the SRC attribute still didn’t work so I decided to reset it and try again with the original url but still not working

You don’t need the “Get a Hint”. The instructions tell you what to use:

Now set the src attribute so that it points to the url https://cdn.freecodecamp.org/curriculum/cat-photo-app/relaxing-cat.jpg

When I use that url, your code passes for me.

The challenges are constantly evolving and receiving small updates to make them more effective or to accommodate evolving browser standards. That means that existing solutions will often no longer work exactly the same. Whenever you look at a solution (via “Get a Hint” or otherwise) you want to use it as a guide for how you can solve the problem, but not copy it directly. Not only will coping the solution get in the way of your learning, it often may not even work!
