Hi there,

There's a few things I can think of to check.

Does the filename of the CSS file match up to what's in the href attribute? Is the file in the correct location. For example is there a CSS directory with your file in it? Is your <link> located inside the <head> tag in your HTML document?

Without these things the browser won't pick up the CSS properly.
