13,818 PointsWith the anchor elements inside the contact-info list still selected, set the background size to 20 pixels square. Then set the left padding to 30 pixels, with all other padding at 0."
You must make square try background-size: 20px 20px;

7,353 PointsThis is the challenge : "Challenge Task 4 of 5
With the anchor elements inside the contact-info list still selected, set the background size to 20 pixels square. Then set the left padding to 30 pixels, with all other padding at 0."
And the code is above :) Thank for your patience...

4,194 PointsIs this the task you are on? > "With the anchor elements inside the contact-info list still selected, set a minimum height of 20 pixels. Then add a declaration that will prevent the background from repeating."
If yes, I think you're supposed to set the height and not the background-size. So it would be just:
.contact-info li a
{
min-height: 20px;
}
