Hi. I don't understand the idea of adding property min-height: 20px when later we add background-size: 20px 20px;
Code:
.contact-info a {
display: block;
min-height: 20px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: 20px 20px;
padding: 0 0 0 30px;
margin: 0 0 10px;
}

2,649 PointsOk but when we define background size image will be exactly 20x20. There is constant size. Why we define min. height in this situation?

7,897 PointsLukas raises a good point. When the size of the image is specifically defined and not a percentage, then why would you need to set a min or a max?
