Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 1,517 PointsI had the same issue.
The teacher had used background color: #XXXXXX;
However you use blue you just need to do color: blue;
I.e. don't include a hashtag when just using a color.
Hope this helps!

3,194 PointsIf you have attempted to fix your code and still no luck, here is the line of code that is correct. (Be sure to save code before refreshing)
background-color: blue;
Feel free to mess around with it and make it more than just a blue color!
