I think its better to to do text-align center for div and let image take care of the height. Just specify a top and bottom padding for div to have space between image and div. Look at this example: http://jsfiddle.net/Tv9mG/
<div class="outer">
<div class="inner">
<img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_74so2YIdYpM/TEd09Hqrm6I/AAAAAAAAApY/rwGCm5_Tawg/s320/tall+copy.jpg" alt="tall image" />
</div>
</div>
<hr />
<div class="outer">
<div class="inner">
<img src="http://www.5150studios.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/wide.jpg" alt="wide image" />
</div>
</div>
CSS
img
{
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
display: block;
margin: auto auto;
}
.outer
{
border: 1px solid #888;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
}
.inner
{
display:table-cell;
height: 100px;
width: 100px;
vertical-align: middle;
}
A very simple and elegant solution to this is provided by W3C. Simply use the margin:0 auto declaration as follows:
.top_image img { margin:0 auto; }
More information and examples from W3C.
This took me way too long to figure out. I can't believe nobody has mentioned center tags.
Ex:
<center><img src = "yourimage.png"/></center>
and if you want to resize the image to a percentage:
<center><img src = "yourimage.png" width = "75%"/></center>

I hope this would be helpful:
.top_image img{
display: block;
margin: 0 auto;
}
text-align: center will only work for horizontal centering. For it to be in the complete center, vertical and horizontal you can do the following :
div
{
position: relative;
}
div img
{
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
margin-left: [-50% of your image's width];
margin-top: [-50% of your image's height];
}
