The very first line in your code is 

!<DOCTYPE html>

That is not the correct syntax, type

<!doctype html>

Can you post your code, theres a better chance of finding the problem if we could see the html

I've updated it since, but it appears in a different position now.

The HTML...

!<DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title> Harri's Resume </title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="resume.css"> </head> <body> <img src="https://placeimg.com/200/200/tech" alt="Some guy using a computer" class="main-image"> <h1>Harrison Greeves, Web Wizard</h1> <h2>Summary of Qualifications</h2> <ul> <li>PHD in Computer Science</li> <li>Knows pretty much everything</li> <li>Good friends with Larry Page</li>
</ul> </body> </html>

The CSS...

body { font-family: "Arial"; }

.main-image { height: 300px; width: 300px; border: solid 4px black; border-radius 50%; }
