For the "Media Features and Media Types" code challenge (after the very first video) I seem to be stuck. On Code challenge 1 of 3, I've looked over my code over and over again for errors and have seen nothing wrong, but I keep getting back an error message "did you enter the correct background color" when I have. I just wanted to check and make sure this wasn't a bug or something that anyone else has encountered.

3,102 PointsIt doesn't look like it's a bug or anything after all. I re-watched the last seven minutes of the video and I saw my problem. I made an adjustment and passed the challenge. If you want to post your code, though, I could help!
