Question:Add the background texture.png from inside the img folder and set the background to repeat.
Answer:
/* Write your CSS below */
body {
font-family: 'Nunito', sans-serif; color: #FAF3BC; background-color: #420600; background: url ('img/texture.png') repeat;
}
Writing like that, it shows me a possible mistake about URL syntax but i can't find it.
Thanks for the help guys!

21,326 PointsUnfortunately this wouldn't work for this particular challenge because it was specifically looking for the background to be repeated.

21,326 PointsHere is the code that I was able to pass with:
/* Write your CSS below */
body {
background: url('img/texture.png') repeat;
background-color: #420600;
color: #FAF3BC;
font-family: Nunito, sans-serif;
}

5,359 Pointsthanks Keith, i solved this exercise writing:
/* Write your CSS below */ body { background: #420600 url('img/texture.png') repeat; color: #FAF3BC; font-family: Nunito, sans-serif; }
:)

21,326 PointsCombining all of those elements into a single background element is the method I would prefer as well. Good work!
Fabrizio Rinaldi

5,773 PointsYikes, Keith, I meant to say repeat, not "no-repeat". Sorry if I confused him even more!
