Template for someone born in a state or country?

Question

Hi all,

big surprise I have another question ;)

Anyway, I have started using the Migrating Ancestor Template ( http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Template:Migrating_Ancestor ) and I thought it would be nice to use a template for people who were born and died in the same state or at least, one for where said person was born. I looked through the list of available templates ( http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Templates ) but did not see one. Is this something that would be worth it to create?

Thanks, Liz! It looks great! Did you make it? I love templates, they make WikiTree profiles look really classy and professional, in my opinion.

You're welcome! I've been thinking of doing something like it for a while, but was a bit daunted by the prospect (I've only done fairly simple text templates before). Your question was the nudge I needed :D

Liz, I've added the template to my profile. Is it possable to center the image?

good question. I couldn't figure out a way to do it without changing the template itself (which would change it everywhere). Not an elegant solution, but adding <div style="margin:25px"> before the template scoots it to the right. Play with the number to get it where you want, but then test it with the window at different sizes. add </div> after the final }} of the template.
