I followed the steps but the pictures were not centered on the page. I used the foxfire and chrome, but it did not work. Please help me to find the problems. Thank you.

Hope you find my answer useful!
Cheers and Keep Coding!

3,530 PointsThank you for your response.
The background-color: green worked but the rest did not work. I don't know what the problem is.
Thank you.

Treehouse Moderator 32,305 PointsYour HTML looks fine, and works if I put it in my own Workspace. Make sure your main.css
and normalize.css
files are in the css
folder, and the index.html
file is outside of it:
|
|_ index.html
|
|_ css
|_ main.css
|_ normalize.css
