How to set profile image to block? I must have missed something in the video..

I must be selecting the image incorrectly but this is the code that worked earlier while I was following the tutorial. It isn't working in the code challenge...

Hey Jesselynn,

You should put that .profile-photo selector inside of the CSS file instead of the HTML page because it belongs with CSS :P

.profile-photo {
display: block;
}

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

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

#gallery {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  color: #bdc3c7;
}

nav ul {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0 10px;
  padding: 0;
}

nav li {
  display: inline-block;
}

nav a {
  font-weight: 800;
  padding: 15px 10px;
}

Hi jesselynn,

Try inserting this code into your css

.profile-photo { display: block; }

Thanks! I didn't realize I could switch to the css tab in the code challenge.
