432 PointsList-Style not being applied and icons not being displayed.
I can't seem to find where in the code I may be going wrong but it seems some path or syntax might not be working correctly. Some fresh eyes would be of great help.

6,430 Pointsfunny how I can see the error in your code, and not my own, which is exactly the same... anyway this fixed mine....
your closing <ul> tag is in the wrong place - it should be at the end of your list items
<ul class="contact-info"></ul>

432 PointsGood eye! I did fix the semi-colons but I'm still not seeing any changes in the list-style or seeing an icons being placed. I hope linking the Snapshot helps a little more to see the whole picture. https://w.trhou.se/q7fdgvvapa

11,729 PointsThank you! It does help quite a bit to include the Snapshot. What page are you seeing these errors with? I can view the code, but I can't see exactly what it looks like. From what I can tell, it looks like it should be working.

6,430 PointsHi, as I said above,,, on line 32 of contact.html, your closing ul tag is in the wrong place, it should be at the end of the list :)
