Can't get image to become circular.

This seems like everyone's issue for this challenge, but I haven't been able to find a solution in the current questions. Basically, why won't my image border apply? Below is my code, but looking at the dev console on the html page, it seems like the browser is only seeing the font styling, and is skipping over the image styling. One thread even said the border-radius property can't take percentages, but in the video Treasure clearly uses %. Has something changed since then?

CSS - resume.css

body {
    font-family: "Arial";
};

.main-image {
    border: 4px solid black;
    border-radius: 50%;
};

HTML - resume.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
        <title>Enzo's Resume</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="resume.css">
    </head>
    <body>
        <img src="http://placeimg.com/200/200/tech" alt="Image of Enzo Cnop" class="main-image">

Your code worked for me when I removed the ; after the } on both of your styling elements. Make sure you don't have browser cache.

Thank you Jack! I think it was the ' ; ' after my curly braces on the CSS that was messing everything up. I'd give you best answer, but it won't let me for some reason...

you must have went through some javascript courses first? i do a lot of javascript so its almost instinct for me now to add semicolon after curly braces.
