Treehouse TeacherIt looks like you're not setting the font from Google fonts (Lato). You need to first do that, then include a sans-serif fallback. It should all look like this:
h1{
font-family: 'Lato', sans-serif;
}
Notice the quotes around the Lato font as well.

Alex Harris
765 Pointsthe font is set in index.html under your stylesheet rel and then add the h1 line shown in previous reply in your main.css
hope that makes sense
