Woops! You have two unordered lists in your html. One is in the nav and one is in the gallery. You've managed to target your nav bar with the id of gallery instead of your actual gallery.

So make the nav part look like this:

<nav>
          <ul>  <!-- remove the id of gallery from here -->
            <li><a href="index.html" class="selected">Porfolio</a></li>
            <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
            <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
          </ul>
        </nav>

And make the gallery part look like this:

<ul id="gallery">  <!-- put the id of gallery here -->
             <li>
                <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
                   <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
                   <p>Experimentation with color and texture</p>
                </a>
               </li>
              <li>
                <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg">
                   <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
                   <p>Playing with blending modes in Photoshop.</p>
                </a>
               </li>
              <li>
                <a href="img/numbers-06.jpg">
                   <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">
                   <p>Trying to create an 80's style of glow.</p>
                </a>
               </li>
              <li>
                <a href="img/numbers-09.jpg">
                   <img src="img/numbers-09.jpg" alt="">
                   <p>Drips created using Photoshop brushes</p>
                </a>
               </li>
              <li>
                <a href="img/numbers-12.jpg">
                   <img src="img/numbers-12.jpg" alt="">
                   <p>Creating shapes using repitition.</p>
                </a>
               </li>
             </ul>

You should see a big difference when you save and refresh the page! Hope this helps! :smiley:

Thanks! that did the trick. Is there a reason that my footer is not at the bottom of the page anymore though?

Jerel Wright Yup! It's because you haven't cleared the float. I'm guessing you haven't quite gotten to that part yet, though. Don't worry! At the end, it'll look great :thumbsup:
