Logo/Nav Alignment

I can't seem to get my logo and my nav in alignment on desktop screens. The logo keeps floating towards the top of the page on the left while the nav rests below it off to the right. How do I get it so that it's all sitting on one line?

I found your problem. In the main.css file you're nav has a top and bottom padding of 100px. so thats what is creating the imbalance on desktop displays. Removing it will fix it but if you want it for mobile devices i'd suggest moving it to the responsive.css

nav {
    text-align: center;
    padding: 100px 0; /* <----- */
    margin: 20px 0 0;
}

Hi Holly,

It looks like this was just a typo. I checked my local copy of this project and I have 10px where you have 100px.

Is there a better way to do that than just copying and pasting all the code into this forum?

I'm just following along with Nick for right now. I plan on making my own updates once I finish the course.

In your main.css, make sure your nav{ padding has 10px 0px. I had the same problem... looking back over the downloaded finished code, I found my mistake. Perhaps you missed it too.
