Move your index.html file to the code folder where you have the style.css file
OR
edit your index.html file change the href to point to code/style.css

Don't give up it wont solve the problem all you have to do is cool down and know what is wrong.



From the screen shot you posted the index.html is your desktop.

Style.css is in the folder code which is also in your desktop.

Now for you to point to the style.css you have to ref to /code/style.css

Hope this helps
