My concern is with the second part of this code challenge. I must be missing some small detail because I can't see why this wouldn't pass.
Why isn't my nth-child(4) code passing?
gallery li:nth-child(4) {
clear: left; }
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 {

#gallery {

Treehouse TeacherHi there, tylerduprey ! You are super close. Your nth-child
rule is currently selecting the 4th item. But it should be selecting every fourth item, so item 4, 8, 12 etc. To do this, you would need nth-child(4n)
as oppsed to nth-child(4)
.
Hope this helps!
