There's a problem here: 

<li><a href="index.html"portfolio></a></li>
<li><a href="About.html"about></a></li>
<li><a href="Contact.html"contact></a></li>

Check out where the "text" of the anchor and the closing tags are located. It also doesn't match the required text, which is

Portfolio
About
Contact

Sometimes, I've found that getting something wrong on one stage will trigger a previous stage to be wrong, too. Hope this helps

You put the > in front of the text (such as portfolio and about). Try putting the > before the text.

Also, don't use uppercase letters for the file names. In programming lowercase letters and uppercase letters are totally different, like for example to a computer "a" is waaayyyy different than "A". This means you should also change the word "portfolio" to "Portfolio", "about" to "About", etc. Be careful! :)

Good luck!
