First off, it looks like you have 2 different CSS selectors for the h1. In programming, you want to try and follow a process called DRY(Don't repeat yourself). Try deleting your first h1 rule as you basically did the same thing. I'm not sure that is the issue because I don't see any HTML code.

You have no <h1> tag in your HTML that you posted. and brianborin is right, you are actually triplicating your css. You are linked to an external style sheet as well as trying to declare you css in your HTML document.
