It seems like border-radius:50%; is not working for me in my profile picture.

profile-photo: { display:block; margin: 0 auto 30px; max-width:150px; border-radius:50%;

    }

Should the colon be there after your selector in this line: profile-photo: { display:block; margin: 0 auto 30px; max-width:150px; border-radius:50%;

If it is a class then it should be: .profile-photo{} or if it's an id selector: #profile-photo{}

Jeremy's right about dropping that colon. But also, "profile-photo" is not an HTML tag name, so it needs a period in front to target it as a tag.

But more importantly, it doesn't look like you've done the first part of task 1 and added the image to the HTML yet.

Thanks everybody. The mistake was the colon, I removed it then it worked. About the period before the profile-photo, I had it there, I just missed it when I copied the text.
