 * Hello,
 * I see the plugin adds the class “aligncenter” to the span containing the image
   variations when it is center aligned in the wp-admin editor. As the span doesn’t
   have a defined width and is wrapped in an A tag i don’t believe it is possible
   to center align the image with CSS. Any ideas on how i can achieve this?

 * Sure – this becomes a CSS issue, and can be solved by a few quick corrections.
   If you look at the styles in the twentytwelve theme as an example, they have 
   the following styles for images:
 *     ```
       /* Images */
       .alignleft {
       	float: left;
       }
       .alignright {
       	float: right;
       }
       .aligncenter {
       	display: block;
       	margin-left: auto;
       	margin-right: auto;
       }
       ```
   
 * To apply those styles to images **contained** within those selectors, you just
   have to refactor them slightly:
 *     ```
       /* Images */
       .alignleft,
       .alignleft img{
       	float: left;
       }
       .alignright,
       .alignright img{
       	float: right;
       }
       .aligncenter,
       .aligncenter img{
       	display: block;
       	margin-left: auto;
       	margin-right: auto;
       }
       ```
   
 * I kept the previous selectors in there as well, as it causes no issues to keep
   the backwards compatibility in this instance, just in case.
 * Hope that helps!
