I've been guessing every possible way I can think of. I don't remember creating 2 different box-shadow rules being cover in the video's. Logically it seems like it is either 0 or 2px how can it be both?
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
.main-heading {
text-shadow: 0 0 5px #be7b31;
}
.title {
text-shadow: 1px 3px 0 #e59740;
}
.main-header {
box-shadow: 0 2px 15px #aaa;
box-shadow: inset 0 0 60px 5px #aaa, firebrick;
}

Here’s the code you need:
.main-heading {
text-shadow: 0 0 5px #be7b31;
}
.title {
text-shadow: 1px 3px 0 #e59740;
}
.main-header {
box-shadow: 0 2px 15px #aaa, inset 0 0 60px 5px firebrick;
}
I checked the MDN page to find out how to do multiple shadows, and CSS-Tricks to find out how to do an inner shadow with the inset
keyword :-)
The shadow doesn’t take on both values. They’re two different shadows! The first one is the colour #aaa
and the second is the colour firebrick
.

6,234 PointsThanks Kieran, I couldn't find it in my notes, because I was looking in the box-shadow part and it was in the text-shadow part. That's how I ended up doing it except I put it on 2 separate lines. It had me stuck for 2 days due to my poor internet connection. Thanks for your help.
