Hi,

That Error clearly telling where you did mistake. you gave wrong format. there is no syntax with "%s.jpg".

what you want to do?

Thank you so much!

The lesson here is that a %s does not know where to stop.  It will just take the rest of the string.  Using the %[^.] will grab a string up to a found period (not including the period).
