22,687 PointsHi Nora,
The problem is with the nth-child pseudo class. There needs to be a hyphon in between 'nth' and 'child' and also having a space after the colon that starts the pseudo class could be another problem. Please see the code to use below for reference:
#gallery li:nth-child(4n) {
clear: left;
}
Hope this helps! Happy Coding!!!
