element. It's that element that you change the font size on.

231,269 PointsYou're close, but I see two issues:
- the first media query is missing its final close brace
- "h1" is a tag, not a class, so the selector should not have a period

2,094 PointsWell, I don't think you can change the font size of a title. The title is just going to be the name that shows up in the browser's tab. Just a heads up though HTML tags don't have to be classes if you want to change the look of every tag on that page to the same thing for example if you want all your h1 elements to have a font size of 20px just drop the period in your CSS file like so I'm sure you knew I just saw your CSS file has .h1 in it.
h1{ font-size: 20px; } then that way you don't have to add a class or id attribute to your tags. Anyway hope this helps you out looks like you are doing well though. I feel the same as you it would be pretty cool if you could change the style of your titles.
