How to position an image to the center of the tab in Chrome [Tip]

Have you noticed? Whenever you click and view an image in a new tab in Chrome, it usually stays on the upper left side of your tab. This is for those images that you view using their direct link. For some, this is okay but that doesn’t mean that you would just settle for something less. With that being said, you can choose to move the position of the image so that it would appear at the center of the tab.

If you want to know how to move the image that you’re viewing to the center of the tab, just read and follow the steps listed below.
