Hey! Can someone help? I'm trying to get the title "Valiant" to the lower part of the screen but nothing works.

<!Doctype html> <html lang='en'>

<head> <meta charset='utf-8'> <title>Valiant</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css"> </head>

<body class="main-header">
</body>

<div>
  <h1>Valiant</h1>
</div>

</html>

CSS:

/* simple Valiant main page links to quotev*/

  • { box-sizing: border-box; }

.main-header { padding-top: 170px; height: 850px; background: linear-gradient(#000, transparent 60%), linear-gradient(0deg, #800000, transparent), #000 url('http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/bemythugtonight/64589814/357421/357421_original.png') no-repeat center; background-size: cover; }

h1 { font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 100px; text-shadow: 8px 10px 5px #000; text-align: center; }

Sorry, I don't know why I can't paste the whole code in a black box.

Hello Shan Quick,

I left comments as followed. Hopefully this helps you!

<!Doctype html> <html lang='en'>

<head> <meta charset='utf-8'> <title>Valiant</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css"> </head>

<body class="main-header">


<div>
  <h1>Valiant</h1>
</div>

</body> <!--  This needs to be at the end, just before the closing </html> tag -->
</html>
<style>
/*CSS: */

/* simple Valiant main page links to quotev*/

* { box-sizing: border-box; } /* added * to apply to everything */
.main-header { padding-top: 170px; height: 850px; background: linear-gradient(#000, transparent 60%), linear-gradient(0deg, #800000, transparent), #000 url('http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/bemythugtonight/64589814/357421/357421_original.png') no-repeat center; background-size: cover; }

h1 { font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 100px; text-shadow: 8px 10px 5px #000; text-align: center;  
/* This is what you want to use to push it to the bottom. */
vertical-align: text-bottom; }

</style>

Let me know if this helps!
