Courses Plus Student 12,884 PointsLooks like you could fix this by linking the Bootstrap CSS in between the opening and closing head tags.

7,528 Pointsif i do that can i delete the links to the bootstrap cdn at the bottom?
Also, do you know why my image is expanding into the other 2 columns?
Tray Denney
Courses Plus Student 12,884 PointsYes. Typically you put the CSS links in the header with your custom CSS as the very last CSS link while the JS links go right above the closing body tag. Check and see if adding the Bootstrap CSS links in the header fixes the columns issue. If not then you can post your HTML/CSS and I will take a look to see why they are expanding into the other columns. :)

Do you know why the "presented by Treehouse" is bellow and not on the right side?
Also, do you know why the image is not keeping in its column and is expanding to fill all 3 columns?
Tray Denney
Courses Plus Student 12,884 PointsFor the "presented by Treehouse" being below, that is because you did not put it in the correct spot. Try :
<!-- Collect the nav links, forms, and other content for toggling -->
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li class="active"><a href="#">Link <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a></li>
<li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#">About</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Speakers</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Schedule</a></li>
<a class="navbar-brand" href="http://teamtreehouse.com"> Presented by Treehouse </a>
</ul>
</div><!-- /.navbar-collapse -->
</div><!-- /.container-fluid -->
</nav>
For the image you will need to create a custom CSS style sheet (link it below the Bootstrap style sheets), target the img element and give it a height and width property of 100%.
The "presented by Treehouse" will not be on the right side so you will need to target that in your custom with an ID and float it to the right. Bootstrap may have a float-right class but you will need to check the documentation for that.
