While creating a break point, it doesn't seem to recognize the change to font-size. Am I doing somethin wrong?

Here is the code I wrote:

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) { h1 { font-size: 2.5em; } }

css/main.css
@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
  h1 {
    font-size: 2.5em; 
  }
}
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;
}

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

nav li {
  display: inline-block;
}

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

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

.contact-info {
  list-style: none;
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
  font-size: 0.9em;
}

.contact-info a {
  display: block;
  min-height: 20px;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-size: 20px 20px;
  padding: 0 0 0 30px;
  margin: 0 0 10px;
}

Hello Rick,

Media queries go at the bottom of your CSS in order to take effect. I strongly suggest that before posting a question, have a look at the search function of the community forums, this question has been answered many times.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Michael, that worked great. When I posted the question, it told me there were no similar questions in the forum.

Great!

If search on the forums doesn't work try searching the challenges' task on google, it will lead you to one of the questions in our community! :D
