Nav Positioning

This is my site 132media.com. I'm wondering if this is the best way to set the nav. I guess I'm still having trouble with the box model. In web design as a whole am I right in thinking that I should make all elements inline-block or block in order to center it's position? i.e. margin: 0 auto

In other words if I want to center something does it need to be a block or inline-block element?

Feel free to critique my code as well. Thanks!!

I'm not a css expert but I don't think you can use margin: 0 auto with inline-block elements, I think you can use text-align: center if its inline-block.

Plus, text align goes in the nav ul and not the nav ul li. Thanks!
