Hello everyone! Was looking at the code and i cant find the problem why on mobile it is displaying 3 collums instead of 2 , this is the code from responsive css :
@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
/**************************************
TWO COLUMN LAYOUT
**************************************/
#primary {
width: 50%;
float: left;
}
#secondary {
width: 40%;
float: right;
}
}
/**************************************
PAGE: PORTFOLIO
**************************************/
#gallery li {
width: 28.3333%;
}
#gallery li:nth-child(4n) {
clear: left;
}
/**************************************
PAGE: ABOUT
**************************************/
.profile-photo {
float: left;
margin: 0 5% 80px 0;
}
@media screen and (min-width: 660px) {
/**************************************
HEADER
**************************************/
nav {
background: none;
float: right;
font-size: 1.125em;
margin-right: 5%;
text-align: right;
width: 45%;
}
#logo {
float: left;
margin-left: 5%;
text-align: left;
width: 45%;
}
h1 {
font-size: 2.5em;
}
h2 {
font-size: 0.825em;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
header {
border-bottom: 5px solid #599a68;
margin-bottom: 60px;
}
}

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
/**************************************
TWO COLUMN LAYOUT
**************************************/
#primary {
width: 50%;
float: left;
}
#secondary {
width: 40%;
float: right;
}
/**************************************
PAGE: PORTFOLIO
**************************************/
#gallery li {
width: 28.3333%;
}
#gallery li:nth-child(4n) {
clear: left;
}
/**************************************
PAGE: ABOUT
**************************************/
.profile-photo {
float: left;
margin: 0 5% 80px 0;
}
}
@media screen and (min-width: 660px) {

Treehouse Moderator 32,305 PointsThat first media query is for anything 480px or wider, so your typical 'mobile' device in portrait mode won't use any of the CSS within that or the other media query, and will instead just use whatever is in the other stylesheet.
