This is really strange. I tried to do as I told at the video about gradients and instead I get a white screen .

Also when I hover the colors, it shows only black and not the right color. Please look at the main-header class. There you will see the problem.

Just as a heads up I modified your original post just to make the code embed display correctly. If you have any questions about posting code check out the Markdown Cheatsheet when posting, it is very helpful and will give you some pointers on how to share code and utilize other aspects of Markdown when you are posting on the forums.

Hey Maya,

Check your spelling of transparent on this line and see if a correction there fixes anything:

background: linear-gradient(#ffa949, trasparent 90%), linear-gradient(0deg, #fff, trasparent ) #ffa949
