6,699 PointsThe code checker is complaining that I didn't set the color of the list items in my gallery.
Here's my code:
'''css
gallery li {
float: left; width: 45%; margin: 2.5%; background-color: #fff; color: #000; } '''
a {
text-decoration: none;
}
#wrapper {
max-width: 940px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#logo {
text-align: center;
margin: 0;
}
h1, h2 {
color: #fff;
}
nav a {
color: #fff;
}
nav a:hover {
color: #32673f;
}
h1 {
font-family: ‘Changa One’, sans-serif;
font-size: 1.75em;
font-weight: normal;
}
img {
max-width: 100%;
}
#gallery {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}
#gallery li {
float: left;
width: 45%;
margin: 2.5%;
background-color: #fff;
color: #000;
}

5,735 PointsYou will have to change the color value to a different color.
Currently the browser has already set the font to #000; (black). If you change the color slightly (#111); It will work.
For example:
#gallery li {
float: left;
width: 45%;
margin: 2.5%;
background-color: #fff;
color: #111;

6,699 PointsYup; I'm too boring I guess. It needed to see that the color had been changed.
