    Centering a background image

    Hi,

    I am new HTML, I am starting to develop my Web Pages and I have my logo image as a gif. I need to be able to center the image in the middle of a page vertically and horizontally. Basically I need a way to specify an offset from the left of the page and the top of the page. I have no idea on how to do this (even if this is possible?

    If it is not possible how do has other sites used a circular image and placed text in a circular fashion around an image (see below):

    | Link 1
    image | Link 2
    | Link 3

    Thanks in anticipation

    Adding a bit more info

    I Just thought of a better way to explain what I am trying to do. If you think of Windows desktop with a circular image centered on the screen with the logos all around it. Basically I want to do that on a web page with links instead of images.

    Thanks

    DONT ME SO MEAN !

    needaname16, it is possible, i dont know how to do it as a background image bit is easy if it is in a table, i'll give you an example of that:
    Code:
    <table width="400px" align="center" height="200px">
      <tr>
        <td valign="center">
          <img src="" width="100px" height="100px">
        </td>
      </tr>
    </table>
    that should work, if it doesn then tell me and i'll fix it, i didnt check it before i posted but i'm 99% sure its correct.

    hope i was of some help.
