1,770 PointsDoes not show my Name and Jobtitle at the top of the website. Tried to adjust css to show it in white, but failed.
Everything worked out fine but I am not able to adjust my name and jobtitle in White. It appears in the same color green as the background.

64,262 PointsHi Wessel, you've got commas instead of points in several places (0,75em instead of 0.75), but the issue with the words being invisible is that you've set the color of you links to the same color as your header's background, #6ab47b, and your h1 and h2 are links.
You'd either want to define link color first, then define h1/h2 color as white, or put more specificity on the h1/h2 color than the link color.

64,262 PointsHi Wessel, could you please post the HTML/CSS you've used for your website so far? It's hard to tell what's gone wrong without that.
