The site does not accept my code.

The page seems not to work – it does not accept the correct code.

css/main.css 
a {
  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: ‘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;
}

#gallery li a p {
  color: bdc3c7;
}

You forgot to use a pound sign when assigning your hex colors should be

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

good luck!

changa one uses quotes. When a font name has a space you need to wrap them in quotes :)

Hello Marc.

You are missing the "#" when setting the colors values. I think that is the problem.

Also, I do not understand the last selector "#gallery li a p". What are you trying to achieve with it?

Thanks

Vittorio
