How to make Reindeer centered

February 15, 2023

I have this reindeer code, but it is very off center. I made this following a tutorial but in the tutorial it worked great but not on mine.

This is all the CCS code for the reindeer.

  .reindeer {
    height: 510px;
    width: 350px;
    position: absolute;
    margin: auto;
    top: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
  }
    
      .face {
        background-color: #A98467;
        height: 150px;
        width: 100px;
        border-radius: 70px;
        position: relative;
        top: 200px;
        left: 320px;
      }
    
      .antler1, .antler2 {
        height: 25px;
        width: 96px;
        border-right: 10px solid #6C584C;
        border-top: 10px solid #6C584C;
        border-radius: 0 20px 0 0;
        z-index: -2;
        position: relative;
        bottom: 15px;
        right: 65px;
      }
    
      .a1, .a2, .a3 {
        background-color: #6C584C;
        height: 55px;
        width: 10px;
        border-radius: 10px;
        position: relative;
      }
    
      .a1 {
        bottom: 55px;
      }
    
      .a2 {
        bottom: 110px;
        left: 30px;
      }
    
      .a3 {
        bottom: 165px;
        left: 60px;
      }
    
      .antler2 {
        left: 65px;
        bottom: 40px;
        transform: rotateY(180deg);
      }
    
      .eye1, .eye2{
        background-color: #333333;
        height: 20px;
        width: 20px;
        border-radius: 50%;
        position: relative;
      }
    
      .eye1 {
        bottom: 5px;
        left: 15px
      }
    
      .eye2 {
        bottom: 25px;
        left: 60px;
      }
    
      .eyeball {

        right: 23px;
        transform: rotate(-25deg);
      }
    
      .ear2 {

      .leg2 {
        left: 380px;
        top: 200px;
      }
    
      .body {
        background-color: #95755E;
        height: 200px;

        z-index: -1;
      }

Im not sure how it made my reindeer so far off the center, I have tried changing relative to absolute, but it wont work. Anyone want to help me? This is a school project, and i need it done very fast.

I found out something, but again same problem with it not being completely centered. I forgot to add the

   height: 510px;
    width: 350px;
    position: absolute;
    margin: auto;
    top: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;

in the .raindeer
And now it is more centered but i dont know how to make it more centered.

>Solution :

Excellent work on the styles for this. Rather than trying to make the reindeer centred – the simplest approach is to put the reindeer in a div and centre that – I am using 100vw and 100vh to make the container the full screen size – and then flex to align it to the vertical and horizontal centres.

UPDATE – I also adjusted your left positions of the different elements. You can also do this with flex – but to keep it as simple as possible – I just reduced the left values that you have.

Its bbest to view this in the full screen snippet – and again – damn fine work on the styling – I like what you have done 🙂
