Thread: Quick Question: Centering

  1. #1

    Default Quick Question: Centering

    This has been bothering me for some time now because I have never been able to find it. I'm trying to align texts and pictures to the center and/or to the right of a forum post but have been unsuccessful. Could somebody tell me what the protocol is?

    I.E. My signature picture. What do I put in brackets to center the picture in the center of my posts?

    this is me on the left and to the right is my partner we love each other very much

    <*center>blah blah<*/center> or [*center]blah blah[*/center]

    Without the asterisks of course.

    Excellent. Thanksalot. I'm sure other forums use different codes because I'm sure I used it before. Or was that [middle]? Thanks anyway.

    Not sure if you really want to use this, because it's kind of annoying.</p>

    Yeah, we don't have a vBcode to center things, 'cause HTML is enabled here.

    I thought [*center]blah[*/center] was the customized vB tag for centering. I think Unne installed it a while back.

    It would be easy to install, that's for certain.

    Or, you could use the far more universally useable:

    &lt;div align="right">blah blah blah&lt;div>

    which gives you:

    <div align="right">blah blah blah</div>
