CSS Not appearing on my Website

So, i'm working on the front end development course and i'm on making a website. I'm stuck on the adding Iconography video because it seems like my CSS wont apply to my website. Here is the code that I have:

.contact-info { list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; font-size: 0.9em; }

.contact-info a { display:block; min-height: 20px; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: 20px 20px; padding: 0 0 0 30px; margin: 0 0 10px; }

.contact-info li.phone { background-image: url('../img/phone.png'); }

.contact-info li.mail { background-image: url('../img/mail.png'); }

.contact-info li.twitter { background-image: url('../img/twitter.png'); }

I went through several times and made sure it matched the video, can someone tell me whats wrong?

by the way, all other CSS is working. Here is the respective HTML.

<head>
      <meta charset="utf-8">
      <title> Jaxon Gonzales | Designer</title>
      <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css">
      <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Fjalla+One|Raleway:400,400italic,700,700italic,800' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
      <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">
   </head>

   <body>
      <header>
         <a href="index.html" id="logo">
            <h1>Jaxon Gonzales</h1>
            <h2>Designer</h2>
         </a>
         <nav>       
            <ul>

               <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
               <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
               <li><a href="contact.html" class="selected">Contact</a></li>

            </ul>
         </nav>
      </header>
      <div id="wrapper">
         <section>

It would help to be able to see the HTML you're using.

check your file path. make sure your imgs are in the correct place, and your src's are correct.

I've checked every line of code and can't find the problem. I don't know if you guys will be able to see this but here is the link to my workspace:
