It appears to be left-aligned rather than centred.

No it is only this one ad that is off centre, not every ad

oh.

that's peculiar.

I can't think of any reason apart from the image file itself being wonky, then again I know very little when it comes to webpages displaying odd things.

Note: I'm using Safari.

That's bothered me for a while as well. Looking in to it I can see the issue causing those two ads not to be aligned properly and I've applied a quick fix to the ads which should fix the alignment. If it's still not aligned correctly let me know.

It possibly is a deliberate choice from the designer. Think, is so offsetting (pun implied) that you remember the ad and tell others who may not have seen or even heard of the product or the manufacturer.

Your talking about it on a world-wide platform is the cheapest kind of mass advertising available.

 

Congrats to the designers and I hope they were well remunerated for this feat.
