Amanda,

Your curly braces are causing the issue. Remove the one at the top that is under media, and add another curly brace at the very bottom, under the closing curly brace closing your .contact-info selector.

Is the font size 2.5em at the very top also an issue? Try removing that.

This is from your code:

h1 {
  font-family: Changa One, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

font-size 1.75 em isn't working? Or are you supposed to set it to a percentage, so that it scales with your site?

Sarah,

Remember, ems are a relative unit, so they will scale as well.

@media screen and (min-width:480px) {
   h1 {
       font-size: 2.5em;
   }
}

Remember to place it at the bottom of your CSS.

Good luck :)
