994 PointsMy icons aren't appearing at all - I can't understand why?
I passed the code challenge etc and everything else is displayed as it should be but I can't get the list icons to display? I'd appreciate it if someone could help me out with this one. TIA!

I'm not sure what you mean by "list icons" — could it be "thumbnail images"? If so, I see those perfectly well. The only "icons" I'm expecting are the twitter and facebook ones at the bottom, and they also appear as expected.
Did you remember to refresh your browser preview after making your last changes?

1,277 PointsI had the same problem.
The problem was that in the contact.html file, I hadn't moved the closing </ul> brackets after the last <li></li>. This was causing the CSS just to look purely at the contact-info <ul> class and not go any further. Take a look at your html and make sure all your code is opened and closed where it needs to be.
Hope this helps!

994 PointsIn a visual sense, at least to me anyway, they replace the bullet points! For some reason they aren't showing up for me. I think I'll take a look in Firefox maybe? Thanks for your input Steven!
Steven Parker
231,269 PointsFYI: I'm using (and recommend) Chrome. I believe that's what the Treehouse developers and instructors use also.
James Ryan
994 PointsThanks Steven I use Chrome too!
Steven Parker
231,269 PointsI'm really perplexed then.
Could you have possibly changed your workspace after you made the snapshot? Or how about forking the snapshot yourself and see if that works.
James Ryan
994 PointsNot showing up in Firefox either Steven? Bizarre! Gonna go work on my WP site - I've had enough of this problem lol thanks again!

1,581 PointsHey James!
I know I'm a bit late to answering this, but I figured I'd clear this up in case anyone else comes across the same issue.
It looks as though in your contact.html file you seem to be missing the "=" sign in between "class" and the ID you are attempting to assign to your list items. Because of this, when you call on those list items in the main.css file nothing happens since technically the classes "phone," "mail," and "twitter," don't exist without the proper "=" sign in the <li>.
Hope this helps!

3,782 PointsIf anyone still has the same problem- here is another solution:
.contact-info li.mail a { background-image: url(../folder/mail.png); }
→ don't use '..folder/image.png') → instead just start with ../ → if you do start with ../ the Workspace of treehouse will open a selecter where you can browse and insert the correct image path very quickly

994 PointsYeah apologies for not using the right terminology - I have a habit of doing that! I meant the images that are supposed to replace the bullet points on the contact page.

231,269 PointsThe bullets are turned off in the CSS by "
list-style: none;" in the "#gallery" rule. The artwork images don't replace the bullet points, they are the actual list item content.But using your snapshot, I see no bullets, but I do see the images — which is exactly what I expect. Do you see something different? Or perhaps you expect something else?
