11,490 PointsHi! You have to follow this syntax:
.main-header {
box-shadow: [horizontal offset] [vertical offset] [blur radius] [optional spread radius] [color];
}

1,844 PointsHi Ismael, Thanks for responding back to me.
Below is my exact code: .main-header { box-shadow: 0 2px 15px #aaa, insert 0 0 60px 5px firebrick; }
/--- where am I going wrong - I really don't understand I this is stopping me from moving to the next task/tutorial..../
Bummer: The second box shadow's horizontal offset needs to be 0.
