96 PointsWhen you view source of the site you should be able to click on the .css file as if it were a link. Make sure it shows up correctly. Often times when CSS doesn't show up it means you are working on a different copy of the css file or the link isn't working properly.

2,549 PointsI'm very new to this. I'm following along with the videos, and I have passed all the quizes, even the css quiz. However, on my mock up it is not syncing. some step by step guidance would be greatly appreciated.

96 PointsOpen your webpage in google chrome.
Right click on anything on the page and choose "inspect element".
Under the elements tab, expand the section called <head> and look for the <link rel="stylesheet"> link. The href="<some_path>" should appear as a link. Click that link. If the path is correct it should show your CSS file (with all your updates). If it gives you any other error you will just need to correct this.

If you've never use codepen.io before, no problem here's a step by step guide to using codepen for creating working examples.
We will then be able to see your code and offer some better suggestions.

2,549 PointsI was able to get the css style sheets to work. However, I am stuck on changing fonts and color in my 'style.css' tab. I have the 'style.css' saved into my 'css' folder but font family and color are not syncing with my index.html once again any thoughts?
