First of all, .css and not .CSS Make sure your files are in the same directory! You should also learn something about absolute/relative path but at the moment just put all your files in a common folder. A common way might be: <!doctype html5> <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"> </head> <body> </body> <html> You can also use the CDN of some CSS files, for example to link Font Awesome on Sololearn CodePlayground. <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">

You should show us the code whenever you have coding question. Your body tag in CSS has syntax error, missing closing }. This is why your CSS not working. And you should use lower case in CSS background: url("img/image.jpg"); And I'm not sure about your footer css, since there is no tag with footer id implemented on HTML file.
