I tried erasing the "color: mediumorchid" from the styles.css file and even tried "color: black". I cannot get rid of the mediumorchid color for my text. Do you have any advice?

18,674 PointsKortney Field Did you refresh the page? If that didn't work then try a hard refresh. On a mac this is the following keys: "cmd shift R" and on a Windows "ctrl R". If that doesn't work, include your code and I will look over it.
