1,927 PointsHi Omer Asadullah Sipra, I'd suggest tagging the teachers by using the @ symbol.
Can I also suggest that you throw the code up on Codepen? That generally makes code easier to review especially considering the local image paths like img/some-image.jpg. One trick could be to host the images on [imgur](imgur.com) and use paths like <img src="http://imgur.com/some-image.jpg"></img>. This could allow you to build a whole CodePen for review and I think it'll allow others to give you better feedback!

Treehouse TeacherI just checked out your Codepen link and everything looks pretty good to me! Nice work. :) Was there something more specific you had a question about?

10,415 PointsWell Thanks for checking my work. There are two things I want to ask. Am I correct in treating the style.css file i.e. Have I properly used the properties to position elements. In the videos for making a simple website, you didn't use margin to a greater extent. Most of the things were handled by grid.css. However, I had to use position and margin properties despite of using same classes in grid css. Is my work in style css appropriate and according to W3C CSS standards.
Secondly I am doing another project currently and things don't tend to move by position and margin properties. Actually, I guess I have understood that grids place objects in columns. However, moving and positioning objects in appropriate places is becoming difficult.

Treehouse TeacherIt looks like you're using position "none" which isn't a valid value for the position property. Two things I recommend:
- I found this by using the W3C's CSS validator, which you can use to check errors like this in the future.
- You might want to read the official W3C documentation about positioning. It's very complicated and context dependent, but you should be able to find answers there.

10,415 PointsHi Nick. Thanks for your feedback. Actually I used none for the position because whenever I was defining margin properties for positioning elements, nothing was happening. However, when I used none in position things started to work to some extent. I don't know what the problem is. Can you guide me in this.
Omer Asadullah
10,415 PointsOk I don't know what happened. Maybe I have been mistaken. I removed position properties and I see nothing has changed. All the elements are correctly positioned. Ok thanks for your feedback.
