Adding the CSS image elements took away my styling

I started to add in the background image elements to the contact info page on the main.css file and as soon as I did, it messed up the styling of my whole website, removing all backgrounds and colors. Help!

.contact-info li.phone a {
  background-image: url('../img/phone.png);

}

.contact-info li.mail a {
  background-image: url('../img/mail.png);

}

.contact-info li.twitter a {
  background-image: url('../img/twitter.png);

}

I think it might be because you're missing the closing quote on the urls? 

.contact-info li.phone a {
  background-image: url('../img/phone.png');

}

.contact-info li.mail a {
  background-image: url('../img/mail.png');

}

.contact-info li.twitter a {
  background-image: url('../img/twitter.png');

}

I hope that helps :)
