    Hi, I have a featured image in my posts, which I assume is the one that shows up in my ‘Posts Slider’, but for some reason one of them is showing up very large. I’ve tried selecting a smaller image, but it still makes it really big and cuts it off.

    Why is this and how can I fix it?

    It’s the 3rd slide in the slider here:

    Thanks!

    you could try this in the Custom CSS field:

    Code:
    #slide_holder .featured-thumbnail img {max-height:280px!important;}

    Ok thanks. What are the dimensions of the featured image? It’s stretching it out now. I just need to know what size they are so I can create the images at the appropriate sizes.

    hard to say, because the size of the image width is counted in percents 35% to the theme width. The image height should be optimal 280px.

    Ok, in my case it’s 420. On a related note, are there other options for layout width other than 800, 985, 1200, 1600?
