8,275 Pointsneed more info..
btw: <h1>{ font-family: 'Oswald','sans-serif'; } Nick Pettit</h1>
is not how you add CSS to an h1.. you do it in the CSS file... look at the css already used to see how you target elements..
Robbie Singh
3,675 PointsIt's asking to apply your font to the first level headline using font family. Include a sans-serif backup.

this should work, good luck!
Dylan Hobbs
9,279 PointsTo add the font family you will need to target the h1 tag in the CSS file.
so it should look something like this
h1 {
font-family: 'Oswald','sans-serif';
}
Dylan Hobbs
9,279 Pointsnote: the sans-serif does not need the ' ' wrapped around it
so you could simply write
font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif;
Robbie Singh
3,675 PointsThanks Dylan, it seems to me that I've tried that but I get a message that says "it doesn't look like you've set the font-family for level 1 (h1) headers yet.

9,279 PointsHey Robbie,
I'm still seeing that you have the CSS inside of your HTML
please copy and paste the header section i've written for you over top of your current header section and then add in the CSS i've provided for you into your CSS and it should be good!
Robbie Singh
3,675 PointsOkay I updated it with your header, though I'm still getting the same message for this coding challenge.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Nick Pettit | Designer</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css"> <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=IM+Fell+DW+Pica+SC|Gafata|Oswald' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css"> </head> <body> <header> <a href="index.html" id="logo"> <h1>Nick Pettit</h1> <h2>Designer</h2> </a> <nav> <ul> <li><a href="index.html" class="selected">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav> </header>
Dylan Hobbs
9,279 PointsDid you place in my code into the CSS?
h1 {
font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif;
}
Robbie Singh
3,675 PointsIt's asking me to use sans-serif as a fallback, which I am doing:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Nick Pettit | Designer</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css"> <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=IM+Fell+DW+Pica+SC|Gafata|Oswald' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css"> </head> <body> <header> <a href="index.html" id="logo"> <h1>Nick Pettit h1 { font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif; }</h1>
Robbie Singh
3,675 PointsYes, I did that.
Robbie Singh
3,675 PointsOh my gosh! NO WONDER! Thanks Dylan!
Dylan Hobbs
9,279 Pointshaha no worries, good luck in the future and make sure to mark the correct answer as answered for future users :)

9,279 PointsHi Robbie,
I can still see that you have CSS inside the html tag.
You need to take the h1 { } OUT of the HTML and INTO the CSS
