1,038 PointsProblems with the classes
I cannot figure out why when I add a class and then try to resize my social icons to be smaller it doesn't work! Can somebody help?
I have my classes added to my HTML like this:
<a href="www.twitter.com/stanziwicht"><img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="Twitter Logo" class="social-icon"></a>
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/stanzi.wicht?fref=photo"><img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="Facebook Logo" class="social-icon"></a>
and in my CSS I formatted it like this: .social-icon { width: 20px; height: 20px; margin: 0 5px; }
But nothing happens. What am I missing?

12,334 Pointshave you tried including the "a" in the CSS.
For instance:
```css
a .social-icon {
width: 20px; height: 20px; margin: 0 5px; } ```
