    I want to have a featured image with my blog excerpts on the home page of my website (www.rave-worthy.com), on the left-hand side, as it standard for blogs, and just like in the “Yoga Solutions” demo in your gallery section of the Theme4Press website. But no matter what I do in the blog post with my images, I get an image bar that goes the entire length of the excerpt, with the image to the left, but then a bunch of white space, all housed within a lightly colored box. And I see no options on the Theme settings to adjust this, either. I’ve tried for hours to get this to work, with no luck. I’ve enable Featured Image, disabled Featured Image…anyway, please let me know how to get this looking the way it’s supposed to. I can’t imagine anyone would want their featured image (including a bunch of blank space) to take up an entire row of the excerpt, so I can only guess that I must have something enabled that isn’t actually related to the featured image but is affecting it anyway?

    Thank you for your assistance.

    Yes, but as far as I can tell, it did absolutely nothing. Well, that’s not entirely true. I was able to get the thumbnails all the same size, but why does the image box extend all the way across the column, rather than just wrap around the image itself? This is very frustrating, as the way it’s showing up on the home page looks terrible. Please tell me there are other things I can do fix this!

    add this css rule to the Custom CSS field in the theme options page:

    Code:
    .entry-content .thumbnail-post img {width:100%;}

    I will fix this in the next theme release.

    whoa….nope. I mean, the image now fills the box, but if you are able to look quickly (I can’t have this displaying this way for long), now the image is huge, filling the entire box across the column! I’m going to see if I can fix that in the meantime, but I can still use your assistance! Thanks!

    so you want the images to be aligned left and have original size? or?

    I want it to do this what this one does (screen shot, taken from the Yoga Solutions demo in the evolve gallery):

    This one is also from your gallery, and would work just as well: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ug9gyd42k8bymth/Screenshot%202014-05-16%2016.05.49.png

    Code:
    .entry-content .thumbnail-post {float:left;width:auto;margin-right:15px;}
