No matter what i put in for this, it doesnt' work. I thought it should be:
wrapper {
max-width: 940px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0.5%;
}

I think that your padding property is what is throwing you off. Try without it.

2,420 PointsHi Ethan. Thanks for responding. I figured out what it was. "padding: 0 5%"
wrapper {
max-width: 940px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0 5%;
}
