Can you please provide the link to the challenge you are working on?


In the future, if you have a question about a specific challenge as it relates to your written code for that challenge, just click the Ask for Help button located on the challenge. It will create a new topic with all code you have written and include a link to the challenge also. You will still be able to ask any questions in the post before submitting it to the forum.

Thank you.

I have done that already and the link sent me to something saying that the project was a stud or something of that sort.

You should click on “Ask for Help”, not “Get a Hint”. The two buttons do very different things.

When I click on ask for help, it just sends me to the forum.

Right… with a pre-generated post that contains all of the information we need to best help. Please actually use the pre-generated post.

Your code says:

The failing tests say:

penguin class should declare the --penguin-skin variable and assign it to gray.
penguin class should declare the --penguin-belly variable and assign it to white.
penguin class should declare the --penguin-beak variable and assign it to orange.

It looks like you didn’t use the required colors.

Thank you so much it worked.
I feel like a complete idiot right now.
:pensive:

We’ve all been there. It’s part of learning how to code and coding professionally.
