My page doesn't look like on video

For some reason my Chrome (for Windows) has problems with displaying elements. My page looks messy: http://i.imgur.com/ZmWS7Ky.png

Maybe someone has an idea why this happens? Page looks normal on Firefox though. Also my project has a problem with importing "Varela Round" font:

Hey Dmirty, this happened to me when I beta tested this course, go into the css and find the gif child class, and delete the height variable, delete the css value for height for the elemenet, and add it back in saving the app.css file when you're done. This is due to someway how chrome handles the import of our css.

Thanks! This fixed the problem for me. The middle gif isn't formatted exactly the same (https://gyazo.com/62867dc3d0eccc9f8fc98bc93cca72c9), but it's hardly noticeable.

I have this same problem. Removing the height value from .gifs img nets me the same picture as posted by Brent with the middle image out of whack, however deleting cache does not resolve this. Also as mentioned by the OP the google fonts URL is showing an error in Intellij that says URI is not registered(Settings | L&F | Schemes and DTD's) but no real indication as to how to resolve this. Any help would be appreciated and thanks for a great course!

Hi Micheal, only real thing to do is go to the css file, and make sure that your height for the gif class that you had matches any of the other gifs, or maybe try adding like 10 pixels to it to see if it will make it line up.

Hi! Had the same issue - simply clearing browser cache resolved it.

for anyone interested, there are easier ways to do this...

chrome keyboard shortcuts

details about caches

CTRL + F5 seems to work best on Windows, although I am not sure on the specific differences between this and SHIFT + F5 (or CTRL + SHIFT + R) in Chrome.

I removed the height from .gif img {} selector. That worked to fix my problem. Does anyone know why the height of an image would cause such a seemingly unrelated issue?
