so you want to use this code here for all img's and it should work to go on to the next task

img { max-width: 100%; }

Hi Jessica and Welcome to Treehouse.

I'm not sure why you are using an ID selector and flex.

The challenge wants you to add CSS that will allow all images to fill their parent element.

So, first off, you need to use the img element selector to select all the images, and then you will need to set the width to 100%:

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

Keep Coding! :)

Quick correction - you need to set max-width to 100%, not width :)

Thank-you for catching that Greg!

Sometimes my fingers type faster than my brain puts out. :) I made the correction in the answer.
