The selector for a tag name (like "h1") should not have a period in front of it. Periods indicate class names.

Thank you, Steven! I can't believe I made such a stupid mistake!! To save time typing, I copied the ".title" rule and pasted it below, then just changed "title" to "h1" and "1.4" to "5". I guess there's actually some value to typing everything out, one rule at a time, instead of mindlessly copying and pasting!!
