"Check work" function not working

My task was to edit the border radius of the image to be 20% which I'm almost certain I've done correctly because I've done it in the workspace, but when I try to check my work it tells me something went wrong and to try again.

I just copied your code in and it worked for me. Are you sure it is task one that is failing? It looks like you have met it's requirements to me. Task two however wants you to set the max-width to 500px which I don't see that you've done yet. 

img {
  border-radius: 20%;
  max-width: 500px;
}

Maybe try a different browser if it still doesn't work? I have had a bit of trouble with Firefox before.

Thanks, it ended up working when I left it for half an hour but it was that task that was failing. Everything else has gone smoothly though
