With the anchor elements inside the contact-info list still selected, set the background size to 20 pixels square. Then 

.contact-info a {
  display: block;
  min-height: 20px;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-size: 20px;
  padding-left: 30px;
  padding-right: 0px;
  padding-top: 0px;
  padding-bottom: 0px;

}

Bummer! Did you set the background size for contact-info links to 20px?

Dunno what the mistake is...

Hey Mustafa,

It's asking you to set the background size to 20px square, not just 20px. So you need to give the background-size property two values; the first value sets the width and the second value sets the height.

Like this:

.contact-info a {
    background-size: 20px 20px;
}

  min-height: 20px;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

This should do the trick.

Hi Mustafa

You need to set the background size to "20 px square" which means you need to declare both the horizontal and vertical size value.

So you should end up with:

.contact-info a {
background-size: 20px 20px;
}

EDIT: Kevin beat me to it :-)

Replace the '.contact-info a' with:

.contact-info a { display: block; min-height: 20px; background-size: 20px 20px; background-repeat: no-repeat; }

I still cannot solve this challenge and have entered the code several times. Am I supposed to take something out and then replace it with this code? I'm not sure where to place it.

Hope This Will Help

.contact-info a { display: block; min-height: 20px; background: no-repeat; background-size: 20px 20px; padding: 0 0 0 30px; }

or this

.contact-info { font-size: 0.9em; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }

Bummer! Is the bottom margin for contact-info links set to 10px?
