Greetings...How can I center my site as opposed to being set on the left side of page? I would appreciate any advice. Thanks

Add <center> tags to your templates starting at the beginning and ending at the end of the <body>. Typically in Act_Primary, Act_BrochurePrimary, Act_PrimaryCart etc.

Out of interest, what's your motivation behind wanting to do it?

Its probably a case of personal taste, I for one, prefer centred sites when they are a fixed size.

I hate sites which are sqashed up to the left and top (there are some old 600x480 sites like this.)

Centred sites that are a fixed width can work very well due to the amount of "white space" on both sides of the content. Too many sites try and cram way too much on the page which can be very confusing to the user - a site with lots of white space can be very powerful when designed with care and attention.
