Tell us what’s happening:

I cannot continue and I can only surmise due to system thinking I’m cheating. Can you lift the flag so I can complete my assignment.

I copy and pasted code from CodePen. It started rejecting my code after that. Can you check the backend to confirm?

Your code so far

Hi @renita.mwangachuchu ,

Did you overlook this instruction?

Note: Be sure to link your stylesheet in your HTML and apply your CSS.

Happy coding!

Doh! That was it and that was all. Thank you, dhess! I thought it was because I copy/pasted my css from CodePen and they didn’t like the copy/paste. I do my work there because it’s easier on the eyes and I can save it for my portfolio later.
