I am trying to center my ul list with my div and for some reason it wont center. I also used my div to make the area around the img white with the text near it. At first the ul centered normally but after removing the div and making the img background white which i used the div for it wouldnt center again and it would make the text background white which i wanted to avoid. if i could get some help that’d be great. thank you.

In order to center something it must take up less than the width of its parent container. Right now both the <div> and <ul> take up the full width of the page so there is nothing to center.

I would recommend you use a max-width on either the <div> or <ul> and then you can center with auto side margins.
