I don't understand what they are asking me to do here: Add CSS that will allow all images to fill their parent element.

What does the challenge mean specifically: Add CSS that will allow all images to fill their parent element.

css/main.css 
a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

h1 {
  font-family: ‘Changa One’, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

Hey Eric Angel,

The code challenge is asking you to select all images with the img element/type selector. Then set the appropriate max-width: value that will fill the parent element.

img {
 max-width: ;
}

I leave it up to you to figure out the value.
