Answer 1

You need to change your CSS for image like below:-

#img img 
{
 display: block;
 margin: 0 auto;
}

Note that align-self is for elements inside a flexbox container which is not your case, you can try with text-align: center; on img .

Or if you wish to go full flexbox, set the img container to:

.containerClass {
    display: flex;
    flex-flow: column wrap;
    justify-content: center;
}

With this setup align-self on the img is not need since justify-content on it's container will do.

Flexbox to the rescue:

 .parent { width:200px; height:200px; border:2px solid #000; display: flex; /* Make it flex */ flex-direction: column; /* wrap children elements to columns */ align-items: center; /* Center children horizontally */ justify-content: center; /* Center children vertically */ }

 <div class="parent "> <img src="http://placehold.it/100x100/cf5"> <p>Green-ish</p> </div> <div class="parent "> <img src="http://placehold.it/100x100/5fc"> <p>Blue-ish</p> </div>

Answer 4

align-self: center; is valid, align-self: middle; is not valid.

However, you can probably achieve what you're wanting with text-align: center; . Despite it being an image, you can still center using text-align as images are, by default, inline elements just like text.

#img img 
{
 align-self: center; 
 width: 50px;
 height: 50px;
}

OR

#img img 
{
 text-align: center; 
 width: 50px;
 height: 50px;
}

Answer 5

First you have to change the nature of div to table then make its align to center like this

 #img img 
{
display:table;
 align: center; 
 width: 50px;
 height: 50px;
}
