Here is my html: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Henry's Resume</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/resume.css"> </head> <body> <img src="http://placeimg.com/200/200/people" alt="Henry Yang, Web Developer" class="main-image"> <h1>Henry Yang, Web Developer</h1> <h2>Summary of Qualifications</h2> <ul> <li>Experience as a freelance web developer</li> <li>Experience with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript</li> <li>Master of Information Technology</li> </ul> </body> </html>
Here is my CSS: body { font-family: "Arial"; }
.main-image { border: solid 4px black; border-radius: 50%; }

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/resume.css">
while in the video it's
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resume.css">
It depends on the location of your css file, try without "css/" in front of "resume.css".

16,242 PointsYou've added class="main-img" inside the stylesheet <link> in the <head> part while it should be inside the <img> tag in the <body> part.

12,562 PointsFriendly tip! If you could use the format on teamtreehouse, I could help you better. Thanks! p.s. (this is how you wrap code)
Wrap your code with 3 backticks (```) on the line before and after. If you specify the language after the first set of backticks, that'll help us with syntax highlighting.
