Don't do much macro stuff in Excel. I have this piece of code I found somewhere a while back and have been using for some time. My question is, what code would I add to make it center the image in the cell vertically and horizontally?

Code:
Sub piccy()
Dim sFile As Variant, r As Range, s As Range
sFile = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="Pic Files (*.jpg;*.bmp), *.jpg;*.bmp", Title:="Browse to select a picture")
If sFile = False Then Exit Sub
On Error Resume Next
Set r = ActiveSheet.Range("B23")
'Set r = Application.InputBox("Click in the cell to hold the picture", Type:=8)
On Error GoTo 0
If r Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If r.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert (sFile)
With ActiveSheet.Shapes(ActiveSheet.Shapes.Count)
    .LockAspectRatio = True
    .Top = r.Top
    .Left = r.Left
    .Height = r.RowHeight * r.MergeArea.Rows.Count
End With
End Sub

Appreciate any help!

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
Disregard, I found some samples and came up with this that seems to work.

Code:
Sub piccy()
Dim sFile As Variant, r As Range, s As Range
sFile = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="Pic Files (*.jpg;*.bmp), *.jpg;*.bmp", Title:="Browse to select a picture")
If sFile = False Then Exit Sub
On Error Resume Next
Set r = ActiveSheet.Range("B23")
'Set r = Application.InputBox("Click in the cell to hold the picture", Type:=8)
On Error GoTo 0
If r Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If r.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert (sFile)
With ActiveSheet.Shapes(ActiveSheet.Shapes.Count)
    .LockAspectRatio = True
    .Height = r.MergeArea.Height
    .Top = r.Top
    .Left = r.Left + (r.MergeArea.Width - .Width) / 2
    '.Left = r.Left
    '.Height = r.RowHeight * r.MergeArea.Rows.Count
End With
End Sub
