Did you write any code for this yet?

I don't see anything in what you have here, so I'm not sure what part you're having trouble with.

If it's the "list items nested inside the gallery", this might be a good place for a descendant selector. That's when you combine simple selectors with a space. And if "gallery" is the id of an element, you might write your selector as "#gallery li".

Unless you say otherwise, I'm going to guess you can handle setting the properties.

For future questions, remember to format your code and provide a link to the course page you are working with.
