Trouble with placement of animation on stage while exporting to animated gif

Hi there! So I'm working on animated social media icons to be exported as an animated gif. The logos just spin and are centered on the stage. When I export the logo is placed top left corner and not in center of stage like I am trying to do. Basically I need the whole stage as the animated gif at a certain size. 

 

How can I make this happen? I've tried various settings but to no avail. The first image attached is what I want the outcome to be with the logo spinning (screenhot of stage). The second is what I'm getting when I try to export. Any help would be very much appreciated! 

 

Thank you in advance!

In the export window, tick "Transparecy" and choose None or White as Matte color:

If you need the logo with a blue background add a new layer on the main timeline and make a blue rectangle that covers the stage then try exporting again. You may want to untick Transparency in this case since it won't be needed.

use transparent pixels surrounding the f, on the f timeline.

Thankd for the quick response! I'm not sure what you mean by that. Can you explain more? Is this an adjustment I make on the movie clip timeline or the main? I made both the movie clip background transparent and the main timeline transparent and get the same results.
