thank you !! thank you !!! for helping me.
I just copied the template code with the store tag outside the template (in the white part) and did a test preview auction on it.
Now heres the thing, It looked exactly the same as before in test preview when the store tag was inside the template. ??? I still had to scroll a good 2 inches to the right to see the whole template (same as when it was inside the template )
So then I looked to see what my PC resolution was set at, something I never even thought about to be honest !! and it was set at 800 x 600.. hmmm ... I then reset it to a higher res of 1024 x 768 pix 32 bit color... (made my fonts screen size so small I had to put on my bi foculs to read ha ha......
I then rechecked my test preview template ...
WOW amazing difference set at the higher res... It is perfectly centered now... must be the res on my PC..
So, now I have another question lol

Is there a way that I can set this template up so that no mater Who looks at it in whatever res size it will be centered ? come on Captain I know you have the answer ??
Slap me with a wet kipper me hearty lol
