Hey Dorka,

Please can you post your code on here so that the community can take a look at it for you otherwise it makes it a bit difficult for us to help out.

If you need help as to how to post you code click on the 'Markdown Cheatsheet' list below your text box for help.

Thanks.

here is what I have for the same project in my main.css file:

nav {
  text-align: center;
  padding: 10px 0;
  margin: 20px 0 0;
}

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

nav li {
  display: inline-block;
}

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

Maybe you missed a line of code or the dreaded missed semi-colon.

try using the margin:0 auto;

inside the nav ul.

Let me know if that works. If it doesn't please put your html on here as well :)
