It looks like you've added code for task 3, but the code for task 2 seems to be missing. Remember the advice given in the challenge that says "Important: In each task of this code challenge, the code you write should be added to the code from the previous task."

The instructions for task 2 were "In style.css, create a new rule that targets .star-bg. Add a 1s transition for the fill property."
