Hi Jeremy, I fixed your CSS code to make it work with code markdown, just so we can see it better.

Try changing your media queries from min-width to max-width

@media screen and (max-width: 480px) {
}

Typically the smaller your screensize the less columns your want to display. Targeting media queries with a max will ensure smaller screens are targeted, no larger. :-)

Hi Jonathan

Unfortunately this had no effect. Thanks for fixing the code, I haven't figured out how to make it post with the black background yet.

Regards
