Bummer: Make sure you're giving '.star' a transform-origin property.

My solution is following the task instruction, but it won't let me complete it!

Hey Samuel Kleos it looks like you've got an additional transform-box property which is affecting the way answers are checked. It's also appearing with a red underline, which is usually not a good sign!

After that removing that line, the hint given will put you in the right direction (you'll need to use pixel/percentage values for the transform-origin property)
