Hi Devin,

just one little problem to fix for you to pass the code challenge:

You added semi-colons at the end (after) of your css declarations - this is not needed and actually produces an error.

You need semi-colons INSIDE of the css declarations, after each declaration, like:

h1 {
    font-size: 30px;
    color: red;
}

But NOT at the end of your declaration (after the curly brackets) as you did.

So just delete the ending semi-colons after the curly brackets and you are fine.

Blessings from Berlin and happy java-scripting, Nils
