Hey Gabriel,

The only issue with your CSS is there is no space between and(min-width:1224px).

By making adding a space, like so @media screen and (min-width:1224px), you will find that your media queries work. :)

Hope this helps!

Hey Gabriel,

Do you mind providing your CSS code that you are using?

It will be easier to troubleshoot seeing the big picture.

also, don't forget to format the code so it is easier to read.
