19,277 PointsYep, maybe that's why it's not rendering. Try this:
@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; }
} // closing media query here.
@media screen and (min-width: 660px) {
/************** HEADER ****************/
nav { background: none; float: right; font-size: 1.125em; margin-right: 5%; text-align: right; width: 45%; }
} // closing media query here.
Cheers!

5,191 PointsIn that last part where you typed "} // closing media query here. "
Is that just a note for me to understand better? Or is the proper syntax that I should follow?
Owa Aquino
19,277 PointsYes that is just a note or comment. Like in htmls <!-- comment --> in css we use // or /* comment */
Cheers!

5,191 PointsThank you Owa Aquino! I am not able to select your answer as the "best answer", for some reason.
You really helped me out!

37,150 PointsAre you sure it's loading correctly? I've come to like using
to check if the file's actually loading because it sets a red border around all elements. Often times when something is not being applied (or entire css is not loading) is because I misspelled something.
