i don't know what i am doing wrong but in the code in the bottom i have to set the background size to 20px and remove padding and set left padding to 30px.

  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

h1 {
  font-family: β€˜Changa One’, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

#gallery {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  color: #bdc3c7;
}

nav ul {

  padding: 15px 10px;
}

.profile-photo {
  display: block;
  margin: 0 auto 30px;
      max-width: 150px;
  border-radius: 100%;
}

ul.contact-info {
  font-size: 0.9em;
  margin: 0;

Hi Alexander,

I think you just left off the second property for the background-size attribute, which requires height and width.

Since they want it '20px square', this is just a matter of:

background-size: 20px 20px;

Hope that helps! Cena
