Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I'm trying to set the font-size to 0.9em in the contact-info list item.

From what I can tell, I have the code right but it's telling me it's wrong.

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;
}

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

#gallery {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  color: #bdc3c7;
}

nav ul {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0 10px;
  padding: 0;
}

nav li {
  display: inline-block;
}

nav a {
  font-weight: 800;
  padding: 15px 10px;
}

.profile-photo {
  display: block;
  margin: 0 auto 30px;
      max-width: 150px;
  border-radius: 100%;
}

.contact-info li {
  font-size: 0.9em;
  margin: 0 0 0 0;
  padding: 0 0 0 0;
  list-style: none;
}

Try adding the style to .contact-info and not the list items in the list:

 .contact-info {
 font-size: 0.9em;
 margin: 0;
 padding: 0;
 list-style: none;
 }

Thank you, Lindsay. That worked. However, I don't really understand why.

It's being a bit specific, but the challenge asks you to apply the styling to the unordered list itself rather than its list items.

I think I understand now. Thanks much!
