5,349 PointsMy profile picture and "General Information" heading is too close to the top of the page
Both the profile picture on the about page and the "General Information" heading are touching the green of the border. I do no know why Nick's works and my doesn't. We seem to have the same code. Thanks!

12,466 PointsI noticed there are some errors in your code that could be the problem. A lot of your id selectors do not have the # symbol in front of them - for example, where you select the wrapper div, you put wrapper
not #wrapper
. Also, there are a few places where you did not specify a unit (px or em), like in your header rule where you put margin: 0 0 30 0
. Go through and correct those areas and see if that makes your page look right.
