Tribute Page - Trouble with CSS

Describe your issue in detail here.

I’ve been building the tribute page and I noticed that none of my css styles are working on the preview. I tried multiple different selectors and styles but none of them change the content on the page. Any ideas that may be the issue? I added a few different examples (this is not the final css).

Your code so far

<!-- file: index.html -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0>
    <title>Tribute Page</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
  </head>
  <body>
    <main id="main">
      <h1 id="title">Carl Gustav Jung</h1>
      <p>World renowned psychoanalyst and psychiatrist</p>
      <div id="img-div">
        <img id="image" src="https://images.jpost.com/image/upload/c_fill,g_faces:center,h_537,w_822/505418" alt="Jung sitting at a desk with a pipe in his mouth in his office decorated with many books and a flower vase.">
        <div id="img-caption">
          Jung reading one of his many handwritten letters to fellow psychologists discussing ideas, opinions, and questions.
        </div>
      </div>
      <section id="tribute-info">

        <ul>
