I cannot understand what the heck is going on as far as trying to center images. No matter what I do it only moves the images a little bit to one side, I am at a loss here. I have three images I want placed horizontally next to each other, and I want them to be centered to the middle of the page, that is all. I have no idea why it is so difficult. I am also unable to size my images veritcally, any help is appreciated. My images are going horizontal and vertical also even when I just change the names of the row and column, no idea why that is either? <div class="row"> <div class="column"> <img src="Images\TheoSleepingWithZoe2.jpg" alt="A Toddler Cuddling With a Lab" style="width:75%"> </div> <div class="column"> <img src="Images\ZoeLayingWithHope.jpg" alt="A Toddler Cuddling With a Lab" style="width:75%"> </div> <div class="column"> <img src="Images\TheoLayingWithZoe.jpg" alt="A Toddler Cuddling With a Lab" style="width:75%"> </div> </div> .row { height: 500px; width: 100%; display: flex; text-align: center; } .column { height: 50%; width: 50% text-align: center; } rjjoaquin August 26, 2019, 5:52am 2 u using bootstrap also you did not end with a “;” on width on .column u simply add class “text-center” WeiszGuy55 August 26, 2019, 5:57am 3 I am just using HTML and CSS right now. I want to get this down before I go into the other parts of the curriculum. Bootstrap is part of CSS right? WeiszGuy55 August 26, 2019, 5:59am 4 Is there a way to center this with flex, HTML, or another simple CSS command for my external CCS style sheet? rjjoaquin August 26, 2019, 6:13am 5 oh sorry. disregard bootstrap i think your code is correct u can see images are centered u just forgot to add a semi-colon somewhere. don’t forget that or are you referring to vertically centering it as well? in that case, i usually do it manually by adding an inner div to the column divs and add padding-top or margin to it and adjust accordingly like so: <div class="column"><div class=inner-column-div> <img src="Images\TheoSleepingWithZoe2.jpg" alt="A Toddler Cuddling With a Lab" style="width:75%"></div> </div> .inner-column-div { margin-top: 10%; } ILM August 26, 2019, 6:27am 6 bootstrap is a CSS library, it is powerful but means learning a whole bunch of different things in FCC you learn bootstrap in the third certification, “Front-End Libraries and Frameworks” WeiszGuy55 August 26, 2019, 6:37am 7 Thank you for reply. What is throwing me off is understanding the ‘Block’ dimensions and where these blocks go by default on the page. I also was thrown off by having the images put vertically by default (because blocks are put vertically). What I figured out is that in the parent element, I put 'text-align: center; , then in the child element I put ‘display: inline-block’. This takes the ‘vertical blocks’ and centered them (parent element) because the inline-element allows elements to go ‘In-Line’. Am I understanding this correctly? Then I didn’t know I could edit the size of an image directly in CSS. So my <img src=" " could be linked to CSS under 'img { }. However, I got confused again by what size I put the image because I didn’t understand the size of the CONTAINER that my images were put into. Then it dawned on me that has been my problem all along. First, I don’t know the shape or size of the ‘container’ that I am working on (which is why I didn’t know hot to edit the size of the image directly in CSS). Secondly, I didn’t know how to change the size of the images inside of the container. So I created a container by specifying the height and width in the child element because I only used the parent one to center. I put 200px for each. Then I set the width and heigth of the image to 100% and BOOM it worked. This stuff is CONFUSING!!! Does anyone have any advice on how to visualize or understand this stuff easier? I spent over three hours trying to figure this one thing out -Frowns-.

You’re getting alignment here almost accidentally, due to images being inline elements and being treated a text. .row { height: 500px; /* divs are block elements, already have width 100% */ display: flex; /* stretch the columns to the full height: */ align-items: stretch; flex-wrap: nowrap; } .column { /* equalise the widths of the columns: */ flex: 1; /* make each column a flex container as well: */ display: flex; /* vertically and horizontally centre the child: */ justify-content: center; align-items: center; } Related topics Topic Replies Views Activity Can't center images in CSS w/o "text-align" HTML-CSS 22 12546 January 25, 2021 How do I align and resize my text and picture on the same level vertically?
