Only one column displaying. I've been staring into the code for really long and just can't find anything wrong with it.

I looked trough all of the other questions but i don't seem to have any of the problems and can't still get my images to display in two columns. Cleared history, opened in incognito, checked syntax but nothing seems to work.
I've been following step by step and the only thing i have done differently to Nick is that i had removed the bullet points of the images previously by adding an extra line of css which i can't figure out which one it is now.

You accidentally typed width; 45%; in your CSS code under #gallery li { when it should be width: 45%;

Steven,

Can you copy your answer and paste it in the Answer box, instead of the comments box so it can be marked as best answer and this post closed.

Cheers
