Sorry, my misunderstanding. I thought you wanted to center the graphic.
To center the caption you need to redefine the LaTeX.
I've used this in the past. Add it to your preamble.
%% Set the captions to be italic
\newcommand\myCaption[1]{\itshape\refstepcounter{figure}%
\begin{center}\figurename\ \thefigure :\ #1\end{center}\upshape}
\let\caption\myCaption
Please reply to the list...
