 * Hi,
    Anybody know how to center the NextGen slideshow on a page? I use the Photocrati
   theme. Now the slideshow on my front page is aligned to the left. It’s ugly. 
   I searched and searched the web, but found no answer. I am familiar with css.
   Thanks in advance Cees [http://ceesmaas.net](http://ceesmaas.net)

 * This is what I did:
 * IN .PHP FILE WHERE YOU WANT IT
 *     ```
       <div id="ngg">
       <?php echo neggShowGallery(PUT GALLERY ID NUMBER HERE) ?>
       </div>
       ```
   
 * IN .CSS
 *     ```
       #ngg {
       width: [NUMBER PX]
       left: 50%;
       margin-left: [1/2 of the NEGATIVE OF THE WIDTH];
       }
       ```
   
 * So for example:
 *     ```
       #ngg {
       width: 1000px;
       left: 50%;
       margin-left: 500px;
       }
       ```

 * Sorry I didn’t see your post sooner!
 * If you go to Appearances -> Editor in the backend, you’ll see all the files you
   need. The style.css file is where you put the CSS code and you put your gallery
   code in a PHP file depending on where you want it to be located. A safe choice
   might be index.php, which is your main page.
