CSS How to Make a Website Responsive Web Design and Testing Adjust the Profile Page and Header

body is not in the centre?

Hi, I've got a question. I think i've been following along with the video of writing the code, but at the end body of the Portfolio page looks not like it should be, the gallery in not centred for some strange reason.. Could you please tell me what cause this kind of problem? There is a Screenshot of the my page: http://s29.postimg.org/6ow66iduf/Screen_Shot_2014_07_11_at_11_54_35_am.png

Hi Denys,

Can you post the css? Maybe something is off on your #wrapper

The width of the gallery items should be 28.3333% not 23.3333%. You made them all a little smaller which produced extra space on the right.

Also, the 3 column video which showed you nth-child(4n) had a correction in the Teacher's Notes. It should be 3n + 1

#gallery li {
  width: 28.3333%;
}

#gallery li:nth-child(3n + 1) {
  clear: left;
}

Thanks for your help! Appreciate it!
