18,199 PointsHey Erin,
Your properties are correct, but you're writing them in the wrong rule. Since you want to modify the nav links (anchor tags) you should write your properties in this rule -
nav a {
color: #fff;
}
instead of this rule -
nav li {
display: inline-block;
font-weight: 800;
padding: 15px 10px;
}
The nav li { }
rule applies properties to the list items, instead of the actual link anchors.
Hope this helps, let me know if you have any further questions!

19,201 PointsThe font-weight and the padding should be applied to links inside of the nav element not the list items.
nav a{
font-weight: 800;
padding: 15px 10px;
}
