My menu is not responsive like the demo version. Its is flushed left and does not move to center when I resize the page.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Lacey Irivn| Designer </title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css"> <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato|Oswald:400,700" rel="stylesheet"> <link rel="stylesheet" href= "css/main.css"> </head> <body> <header> <a href="index.html" id="logo"> <h1>Lacey Irivn</h1> <h2>Designer</h2> </a> <nav> <ul> <li><a href="index.html" class="selected">Home</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="icontact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav> </header> <div id="wrapper"> <section>

I'm not familiar with the course, so this might be incorrect advice, but it looks like you are trying to center the header with the margin: 0 auto; on the wrapper; is that right? If so, then you'll need to put the wrapper div around the <header> element.
But if you don't want to alter the HTML, then just add a similar property to the header rules in your CSS, with a max-width and a margin-left and margin-right of auto.
