Figures aligned left after compiling

[robertorolo]

I am using ![conda](images/anaconda.png) to insert a figure on a markdown cell. On the jupyter notebook, when i run the cell, the image shows aligned on center. However when i compile my docs using sphinx (i am using RTD theme) the images aligned on left.

Currently, nbsphinx uses pandoc to convert Markdown to reStructuredText which is then processed by Sphinx.

The call is comparable to this:

pandoc --from markdown-implicit_figures --to rst

Your input

![conda](images/anaconda.png)

... will be transformed to

|conda|

.. |conda| image:: images/anaconda.png

... which contains no information about alignment. So it's up to Sphinx to choose the alignment.

You may find a Sphinx option to change the default alignment?

Or you can try to use some custom CSS to get your desired alignment.

Or you can try to hack src/nbsphinx.py to do what you want.

If you come up with a satisfactory solution, feel free to make a PR!
