8,499 PointsCSS #wrapper background doesn't work when content added to #gallery.
I uploaded my website to kylestem.com but something is not quite right with it.
I am trying to have a red body background and a white wrapper background, but with the gallery content in place, the wrapper background disappears.
Using the developer's tool, I see that it's giving the wrapper 0 height even though that's where the gallery is in my HTML.
Any suggestions?

to the #wrapper
div.
#wrapper {
overflow: hidden;
}
