Hi,

We had some issues this morning with Code Challenges timing out like you described. Should be fixed now though. Let us know if you're still having a problem. We post issues as we're aware of them to status.teamtreehouse.com and Twitter (@treehouse).

The issue with your code is that title is an html element, not a class. Your code should not have the . before title in the css. Try this code:

title {
    font-size: 26px;
}
