17,826 PointsHi, Brian. You've declared the box-shadow property twice on the .main-header, and the second property is cancelling out the first. Instead of declaring it twice, use both shadow values on one box-shadow property, separated by a comma. Like so;
box-shadow: 0 2px 15px #aaa, inset 0 0 60px 5px firebrick;
Also, you don't have to include "px" if the value is zero. Hope this helps. Good luck!

You are nearly there, just don't repeat the "box-shadow" for the inset shadow, just inset the values after the comma:
.main-header {
box-shadow: 0px 2px 15px #aaa, inset 0px 0px 60px 5px firebrick;
}
