I am trying to understand why this code is behaving the way it does. When I load the page in Chrome or Firefox the background image used for .jumbotron shows up as only a thin strip, and it does this regardless of the image I use. I thought that the size: 100% is supposed to make it take up the whole window.

This code is from Codecademy's "Build an Interactive Site" lesson, and the image works perfectly there. The only changes I made were the locations of the css and js files, which I properly accounted for when referencing them in my index file.

Any insight I can get would make my day.
