Hi pettit,

After I created the main.css and I try to remove the underlined from the link .Using
a { text-decoration: none; } no effect on the website then.

Did you link main.css to your html file? if not, add the following link in the head section of your html file.

<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit| Designer</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">    
</head>

If you've done that, have saved both files, and refreshed the browser and it is still not working, can you post a copy of your html and css? That will help us to figure out whats going on. If you have posted code in the forum, then you should look at the Markdown Cheatsheet under the comment/answer box.

Try selecting the class with pseudo: .Using:link {text-decoration: none}

Is this class nested inside a "ID"? If so try: #IDname.Using a {text-decoration:none}

Post your code and it's easier to answer.
