3,550 PointsI'm having consistent trouble with nth-child!
I am working on a challenge which asks me to clear left on every 4th item in my "gallery" id. I keep getting told that it's wrong, but I looked it over, I compare it to what was went over in the lesson, and I honestly don't know what I'm doing wrong here.
I feel like it's possibly something small yet obvious, but what that is exactly, I currently can't figure out.

3,550 PointsThank you Javier - I was actually able to figure that out on my own (after too much time spent not realizing my spacing was off). Again though, thank you for helping confirm where I was going wrong!
