#bannercontent{
    font-family: 'Quicksand:300';
    align-items: center;
    text-align: center;
    align-content: center;
    font-size: 25px;
}
.banner{
    list-style-type: none;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    background-color: grey;
    width: 560px;
    height: 40px;
    vertical-align: middle;
}
.links{
    text-decoration: none;  
}
.links:hover{
    color: white;
    text-align:center;
}
.bannerlinks
{
    display: inline;
    margin-right: 20px;
    border: 12px;
