Twitter and Facebook Icons won't resize.

I have looked over my code and can't figure out what is wrong. CSS- /****************************************** FOOTER *******************************************/

footer { font-size: 0.75em; text-align: center; clear: both; padding-top: 50px; color: #ccc; }

.social-icon { width: 20px; height: 20px; margin: 0 5px; }

HTML- <footer> <a href="http://twitter.com/nickrp"><img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="Twitter Logo" class:"social-icon"></a> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100008285481866&fref=ts"><img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="Facebook Logo" class:"social-icon"></a> <p>Ā© 2015 Jennifer Wheeler.</p> </footer>

  1. For your classes you have used : rather than =
  2. Make sure your image src paths are correct
