I'm new to this site and HTML so sorry if I get this messed up

HTML

<img align="center"src="https://yt3.ggpht.com/-7xOKskOmwVY/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/7s2wU-RMkac/s100-c-k-no-rj-c0xffffff/photo.jpg" />

I want that image to be in the center of the website. When I align left or center it just goes to the right, and when I align it to the right, it goes to the left. There's text beneath it so I'm guessing maybe it just wraps weird with the text under it? Anyways, some help please.

What I have tried:

I've tried messing with where the picture is on the website but it just doesn't make a difference.

You can use CSS to do this.

In your stylesheet:

CSS

.center {
    display: block;
    margin: 0 auto;
}

Then, give your image the center class using the following attribute:

HTML

class="center"

If you don't want to use a separate stylesheet, you can use the style attribute on the img element to set the styling (using a separate stylesheet is cleaner, though):

style="display: block; margin: 0 auto"

Or you can wrap the image in a p tag with align="center":

HTML

<p align="center">
    <img align="center"src="https://yt3.ggpht.com/-7xOKskOmwVY/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/7s2wU-RMkac/s100-c-k-no-rj-c0xffffff/photo.jpg" />
