*,
*:before,
*:after{box-sizing: border-box;}
If that doesn't work, you might need to look at the parent of this ul and li, or to make sure that all are sit.

10,648 PointsIf possible, if I could see all of your entire stylesheet that would help a lot. I would be able to add it to my html and figure out what's wrong. You do have the gallery list item correctly coded for the layout. Possibly it could be the wrapper is off or the margins and padding of your gallery might be off also. But I can't tell with just that little bit of css you provided.
