Within your HEAD in the HTML, you need to load the CSS path properly.
If your css file is within a css folder, as below:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">
If your css file within the same path, as below:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="main.css">

Treehouse TeacherLook at where your files are in relation to each other -- like JJ Jar suggested. Where is the HTML page in relation to the CSS files? For example, if you have two folders -- one with your CSS files and another containing your HTML file -- and those two folders are both grouped together in the same folder on your computer, then the path to get to the CSS file would be something like "Go UP and OUT of the HTML folder, then INTO the CSS folder and select the CSS file".
The way you would write that would be
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../css/main.css"
The ../
means "go out of the current folder up one level. To go up two levels (exit a folder then exit another folder) you'd write ../../
