 * Perhaps, because ‘float: left’ in
 *     ```
       .ngg-thumbnail {
           float: left;
           margin-right: 12px;
       }
       ```

 * thanx for advise.
    I changed it to be centered (see the link in first post) but
   now all thumbnails are vertically positioned (not inline)!! How to place them
   inline??
 * here’s my /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/css/nggallery.css
    (Next-Gen version–
   the latest)

 * Oh, in you case additionally you should modify album styles.
    - .ngg-albumoverview:
 *  1. Add _“text-align: center;”_
 *  - .ngg-album-compact:
 *  1. Remove _“float: left;”_
    2. Add _“display: inline-block;”_
 * **The result:**
 *     ```
       .ngg-albumoverview {
           clear: both;
           display: block !important;
           margin-top: 10px;
           text-align: center;
           width: 100%;
       }
   
       .ngg-album-compact {
           display: inline-block;
           height: 180px;
           margin: 0 !important;
           padding-right: 6px !important;
           text-align: left;
           width: 120px;
       }
       ```
   
 * P.S. Nice page.
