Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 8,692 Pointsusing the float property the classical html layout goes mad. so you need to use clearfix to fix it. i think this might be an issue.
add to your html:
<header class="clearfix">
and
<ul id="gallery" class="clearfix">
to the css add:
.clearfix {
overflow: auto;
}
and
body {
margin: 0;
}
read about clearfix on google search

10,343 PointsCould you share your workspace? Right away I can see you have your wrapper max-width (maximum width) set to 940 pixels which means that your page with me at a maximum width of 940 pixels and no more but I am not sure if that is all that is affecting your page.
