Hey Melina,

You're currently adding the margin of 2.5%, color, and background-color to the wrong selector. You'll want to add the margin, color, and background color to the list items nested inside of the gallery ID. You're currently selecting the any paragraph tags which are nested inside of anchor links which are nested inside of 

// Here
#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  color: white;
  background: purple;
}
// No need to select the following
#gallery li a p {}
