3,468 PointsCSS not working properly. h1 tag messed up?
Okay so I'm in the "Write the CSS" video trying to add my own code, but I don't think it's working properly when I try to add the padding and background-color for my h1 tag. The first box is my CSS and the second is my HTML
body {
font-family:"Ariel";
}
.main-img {
border: solid 4px black;
border-radius: 50%;
}
h1 {
background-color: #e2e2e2;
padding: 5px;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Photography</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href"photos.css">
</head>
<body>
<img src="images/me.png" alt="Converse" class="main-img">
<h1>Nadia Masiero's Photography</h1>
</body>
</html>

h1 {
color: #e2e2e2;
padding: 5px;
}
Not sure if the H1 itself needs a background color, so by just using the property of "Color:" you're directly changing the color of the text.
Hope this helps! :)
