To put code into a forum post use triple back ticks -- ``` — around the code. I fixed your code here, but in the future here's a forum discussion that describes how to add HTML, CSS, JavaScript or other code to the forum: https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/posting-code-to-the-forum

Hi nathon reed

The CSS background property is all-lowercase no 'B' in background.

I took the suggestions and still not working here is my HTML and CSS code so far.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Multiple Background Images</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
    <div class="sketch"></div>
</body>
</html>

.sketch {
     background: url('img/smiley.png') no-repeat right top, 
     url('img/pencil.png') no-repeat left bottom, url('img/texture.jpg') #EED293;
}

The pencil image needs to be above the smiley image, so you need to add it first to the background property.
