im not to sure what its asking... "Next, let's display .main-logo, .main-nav, and .main-nav li so that they're inline but can be styled as block-level elements."

            <p>I design beautiful user interfaces, then bring them to life with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I love including personal photographs of nature, people and everyday things in my designs.</p>
            <p>If you need a front-end designer for your next project, <a href="#">take a look at my work</a>, then <a href="#">get in touch</a>!</p>

hey there !

its asing you to display those items, as inline and blocks at the same time !

.main-logo, .main-nav, .main-nav li
{
  display: inline-block;
}

You may need to drop the "and" from the selectors so the code is not rejected in the CSS page.

you're right Chris Wiley ! it was a false manipulation ! didnt notice, thanks !

More eyes on the code is what the forum is about! :)
