Hi Sriharsh,

The question is asking you to put padding on the 'nav links'. You seem to be targeting the nav list items.

Try something like this:

nav a {
  padding: 15px 10px;
}

Hope this helps

It wants you to set your nav links to have a font weight of 800, not the list items. The code should look like this:

a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a {
  color: #fff;
  font-weight: 800;
  padding: 15px 10px;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

nav ul{

    margin: 0px 10px;
    padding: 0;
    list-style: none;
}

nav li{
   display: inline-block; 
}

h1 {
  font-family: ‘Changa One’, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

#gallery {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  color: #bdc3c7;
}
