It's a little difficult to read your code both because of how it is laid out and how it is inserted here. Most of all is the way you don't have the code indented between the curly braces.

However, the issue you may be running into is the extra : on font-size for your h1. It should look like the following:

h1 { 
  font-size: 90px; 
  color: white;
}

I may be missing something else too, but this is what stands out to me at first.

Below is a nice thread on posting code to forums here on treehouse:

Happy coding!
