}

}

#gallery {

  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {

You're close but you're missing the ending curly braces on the two selectors. They need to some in pairs with a closing one for each opening one. They mark out a "block" which is a logical grouping of css commands, with the selectors inside the media query's block.

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
  #gallery li {
    width:28.3333%;
  }

  #gallery li:nth-child(4n) {
      clear: left;
  }
}

Thank you so much Seth Kroger, I greatly appreciate the help. I tried it again putting the curly brace at the end. So what I did is: I reset the code, inserted this:
#gallery li:nth-child(4n) { clear: left; } } , but it still did not function. Should i refresh the page?
