I am getting caught early on by "The Steps for Modifying the Appearance of the Site", where I am told to modify color values in Site.css. After making the changes they asked for my code looks like this:
...however
only the 2nd "color" attribute applies. The first "background-color" attribute retains its original
5c87b2 color. Later on in the exercise I run into similar problems. I have tried restarting and refreshing the build before running it and there is no difference.
Sorry for the amateur hour question, but I can't find any answers to this very simple problem just by searching. Thanks.

I am getting caught early on by "The Steps for Modifying the Appearance of the Site", where I am told to modify color values in Site.css. After making the changes they asked for my code looks like this:
body {
background-color: #669900;
font-size: .85em;
font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Verdana, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
color: #006600;
}
