front end web development - adding css to images

add css that will allow all images to fill their parent element

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: β€˜Changa One’, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

gallery ul {
  width 45%;

}

you need to style the img element to have a max-width of 100%. Having a max-width of 100% will make the img have width that spans the entire parent element. I hope this helps.

Hi Essa,

Adding the following to your file should do this:

img {max-width: 100%;}

This video at around the 2:15 mark should give you examples from the project.

Hope that helps
