#gallery {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}
#gallery li {
float: left;
width: 45%;
margin: 2.5%;
background-color: #f5f5f5;
color: #bdc3c7;
}
#gallery li a {
margin: 0;
padding: 5%;
font-size: 1em;
color: #bdc3c7;
text-align:center
}
Regarding #gallery li a
When I have the padding set to 5%, the images are misaligned with the gray background. The images shift to the right. Now, when I have the padding set to 0, it looks fine.
The tutorial has his set at 5% though. And it looks fine there.

In the tutorial Nick sets the properties for the gallery to the paragraph tags nested inside it (see code below). You have to be careful when reviewing and writing code, so that you do not miss anything!
#gallery li a p {
margin: 0;
padding: 0%;
font-size: 0.75em;
color: #bdc3c7;
text-align:center
}
P.S. Your gallery has collapsed. You will need to add a clear fix to this.
Good luck :) I like your website!

8,396 PointsThats alright. I have included the code you need to fix your gallery.
Add this to your css
.clearfix {
content: " ";
clear: both;
display: table;
}
Add this class after your id
<ul id="gallery" class="clearfix">
