[suggestion] Center the nav menu items - Blink - 04-12-2018

It looks a bit weird now that the pomf and chan buttons are gone. I think the buttons better in the center.

CSS code:

Code:
.nav_menu {
    text-align: center;
}

And maybe you'd want to increase the gaps in between the buttons:

Code:
.nav_menu > li > a {
  padding: 10px 47px;
}

Still looks a bit off, but in my opinion it's better than before

Here's how it looks with the mentioned changes, on the stock theme:

Here's how it looks on my custom theme:

(it looks better on my theme if the padding is around 20-30px instead of 47

EDIT: For some reason it won't center on the home page, although padding values under 41px still work. I'll look into it later I guess, although a padding value of 40px also makes it look decent. Centering + padding is only really needed on everything except for the home page, as the home page has that button on the right, which makes everything look good if just padded

I brought this up specifically because the pomf and chan buttons were removed. With them removed, the left-alignment is much more noticeable.

Makes sense.

It has put the alignment further out.
