3,612 PointsDid you change the h1 font-size to 2.5em for devices larger than 480px?
I can't figure out why this is wrong.... probably something simple I'm missing. Any ideas?
@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
h1 {
font-size: 2.5em;
}
}
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 {
max-width: 100%;
}
#gallery {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}
#gallery li {
float: left;
width: 45%;
margin: 2.5%;
background-color: #f5f5f5;
color: #bdc3c7;
}
nav ul {
list-style: none;
margin: 0 10px;
padding: 0;
}
nav li {
display: inline-block;
}
nav a {
font-weight: 800;
padding: 15px 10px;
}
.profile-photo {
display: block;
margin: 0 auto 30px;
max-width: 150px;
border-radius: 100%;
}
.contact-info {

28,558 PointsThere is a rule that also targets h1 elements and sets their font-size
property farther down in the file, and since that rule has the same specificity (and is defined further down) it overrides the rule in the media query.
To get around that you simply need to move the media query to the bottom of the file. This is part of the reason why it's common to place media queries at the bottom of CSS files.
