Tell us what’s happening:
I’ve created a class to resize the image to a smaller one, as per the instructions to finish this lesson, but it’s not working anywhere! WHERE DOES IT GO? Help!

Your code so far

  h2 {
    font-family: Lobster, monospace;
  }

  p {
    font-size: 16px;
    font-family: monospace;
  }
</style>

<h2 class="red-text">CatPhotoApp</h2>
<main>
  <p class="red-text">Click here to view more <a href="#">cat photos</a>.</p>
  
  <a href="#"><img src="https://bit.ly/fcc-relaxing-cat" alt="A cute orange cat lying on its back."></a>

I don’t see that resize.

3

I don’t know, everything works for me :thinking:

4

Were you able to click on the challenge? It’s asking to change the image size to a smaller one. Problem is- no matter where i put the code, it’s not working. And i’m using Google Chrome at 100% zoom.

5

Sure, but even if I don’t look at the challenge instructions, based on the code you posted, I don’t see any class that resizes an image.

6

what’s posted is the original code that i had to reset. i haven’t added anything because no matter where i put:

.smaller-image { width: 100px; }

it doesn’t work! so where do i put this?

7

What’s your intuition?

8

And then, how would you add a class to an element.

9

i’ve tried adding a class to the img element and still no luck… i’ll eventually get it. :crossed_fingers:

10

post what you’ve got and then we’ll see what else is wrong

completed it; figured it out. thanks!
