can't get three columns?

I think my code's o.k., but my Portfolio images just stay at two columns, regardless of screen width?

Hi Bill,

You can either post your code for responsive.css or you can take a snapshot of your workspace.

Hi Bill,

It's difficult to know the exact problem without seeing your code but my best guess is that you made an error (such as a typo) with your media query for the gallery images.

I can't even tell you how many times I would get so frustrated about something not working properly only to realize it was just a simple typo.

You should have the following css included in your stylesheet:

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
  #gallery li {
    width: 28.3333%
  }
}

I hope this helps!

David
