I have it in my web folder with the images ect...... Not really sure if i have it saved correctly. Grid.css nor Normalize.css. seem to be working. It is not centering my site nor is it taking away the frame. I download the normalize and save it as .css Do you a corrected download for each?

Hi Lavin,

This is what I have:

The normalize.css and grid.css are both inside the CSS folder. The CSS folder is also inside my main folder, along with all the other files; index.html etc. Lines 4 and 5 below are pointing towards the css files. So for example "css/grid.css" says that the grid.css is INSIDE the css folder.

<head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
    <title>Smells Like Bakin Cupcake Company</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css" type="text/css" media="screen">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/grid.css" type="text/css" media="screen">
</head>

I think that should work...

Thanks, no problem about the typo. :-) I will try this and see if it works but, I think its has something to do with the if the downloading the correct folders. I've done great until this point.
