Hi Gregory,

If I remember right you just need to apply the border-color to the img:nth-child(3n + 4){ rather than a new hover style.

EDIT For example:

img:nth-child(3n + 4){
    clear:left;
    border-color: red;
  }

Hope that helps

Hi Rich

I do that

img:nth-child(3n + 4):hover {
    border-color: red;
  }

but i have this message Make sure you give the cleared images a different border color.

Just updated my answer above to include an example of what I meant.
