I cannot pass the code challenge for media queries. I am not sure what is going on. Any takers?
@media screen and (min-width: 480px)

a {
text-decoration: none;
}
#wrapper {
max-width: 940px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#logo {
text-align: center;
margin: 0;
}
h1, h2 {
color: #fff;
}
nav a {
color: #fff;
}
nav a:hover {
color: #32673f;
}
h1 {
font-family: Changa One, sans-serif;
font-size: 1.75em;
font-weight: normal;
}
img {

14,780 PointsHey William!
As Ramus Akselsen has pointed out, you are missing out a semicolon after the CSS attribute, which may affect the challenge.
As well as this, further on in the CSS file, the h1 element has a new font-size applied to it:
h1 {
font-family: Changa One, sans-serif;
font-size: 1.75em;
font-weight: normal;
}
Therefore, due to the cascading nature of CSS, this will override your media query you have just wrote at the top.
To fix the issue and pass the challenge, write your media query beneath this selector, or at the bottom of the style file so that the challenge passes.
Hope it helps and if you run into any more issues, feel free to give me a shout :)

You are missing the semicolon efter font-size.
And you need to add at the bottom of the file, otherwise the css will change the font-size back to 1.75em further down. because of the cascading in CSS.
