    The author introduces the concept of \textit{degree of triangle centers}, in order to present a new method to study triangle centers. By using this notion, the mutual relation of centers of generalized Euler lines is clarified. This generalizes the well known \(2 : 1\) point configuration on the Euler line. A natural family of triangle centers based on the Ceva conjugate and isotomic conjugate is introduced since it contains many famous triangle centers. It is conjectured that the degree of triangle centers in this family always takes the form \((-2)^k\) for some \(k \in \mathbb{Z}\).
