Off center, do you mean it floats in the screen like a weapon Icon?

No. The picture i am using as my minimap was way way way too big, so i divided the size by 4 on each, hight and length, but now there is an error in the munge log saying the minimap had to be a square of 2. Originally the pics size was 4096x4096, and then i took a chunk of the top where there is nothing, so now its 1024x750, So i went and fixed the pic so it was a square of 2 but now its off center.

In your base layer of ZE, create a box region with the name an property of "mapbounds". Scale it over your map. Test in-game. Resize and move as necessary until it lines up.

The way I do this is to place the mapbounds and scale to include all the map, take a top down screenshot of ze, crop the screenshot to the mapbounds, make sure it is square and power of 2, and edit that, which will have a lot of detail in in. I actually used a ze screenshot for the minimap in my contest map. :D
