Here is my code from main.css...

gallery li {
float: left; width: 45%; margin: 2.5%; background-color: #f5f5f5; color: #bdc3c7;

Any help would be much appreciated. Thank You.

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 11,127 PointsHi Alfonso,
Erik is right. You need to use something like the following structure below your current CSS -
@media screen and (min-width: 400px) {
body {
background: green;
}
}
and within the first set of brackets type the css code you want to be implemented once your screen hits a certain size. In the above example, when the screen width is greater than 400px the body's background will change color to green.
Hope that helps,
Ede

If you're wanting to rearrange your page structure when the browser is resized, you will need to use media queries.

620 PointsThank you both for your help. Concerning the media queries, I am unsure of what exactly it is that I am doing wrong. Here is what I have so far...
@media screen and (min-width: 480px) { /********************* TWO COLUMN LAYOUT *********************/
#primary { width: 50%; float: left; }
#secondary { width: 40%; float: right; } }
/********************* PAGE: PORTFOLIO *********************/
gallery li {
width: 28.3333%;
}
gallery li:nth-child(3n+1) {
clear: left; }
@media screen and (min-width: 660px) {
}
I would be grateful for more input.
