the pixel in the margin of the profile picture

Hello!

In the css rule below for the picture in the About page, I wonder why we are using px. I thought media queries should use percentage so that the properties can alter with the screen size. Is there a rule of thumb for when it is best to always use pixels when doing responsive layouts?

.profile-photo{ float:left; margin: 0 5% 80px 0;

}

Thanks
