Side note: Can we get a moderator to change this code challenge? This exact question appears on a daily basis.

You're changing the h1 style correctly, but further down your CSS there's another another h1 style that overwrites yours. Place your query right after the defaulting h1.

/* Default h1 */
/* small screens */
h1 {
  font-family: Changa One, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

/* Query h1 */
/* large screens */
@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
 h1 {
   font-size: 2.5em;
   }
}

Thank you, i'm such a noob, i should have remembered that code overrides one another in CSS. too much to comprehend at once, but i'm getting there.

Thanks for helping with this Josh, unfortunately moderators can make changes to code challenges. I'd suggest reaching out to help@teamtreehouse.com and letting them know about the confusing item with your suggestion for correcting it.
