990 PointsFooter moved out of place after floating gallery images left
Hey everyone,
So I attempted to float my gallery to the left, but after I typed out the code and refreshed, my footer floated left with my gallery and there is no spacing between images in my gallery (nor is there a grey color block around the paragraphs describing each image in the gallery).
Thanks for your help!
Here is my css:
/*********************************

*********************************/
body{
font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;
}
#wrapper {
max-width: 940px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0 5%;
}
a {
text-decoration: none;
}
img {
max-width: 100%;
}
/*********************************

#logo {
text-align: center;
margin: 0;

h1 {

font-size: 1.75em;
font-weight: normal;
line-height: 0.8em;
}
h2 {
font-size: 0.75em;
margin: -5px 0 0;
font-weight: normal;
}
/*********************************

}
