Can I later revert to my discontinued theme if I change to a current one now?

  My theme has been discontinued – Fresh and Clean. If I try a different theme that is current and decide I don’t like it, can I go back to my old theme, and if so, how do I do it?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  As someone who had the theme, you can always revert. It will be on your themes page.

  Thanks. That makes it a little less daunting to try an update!

  I have just changed my blog to the Expound theme, and I love the way the front page looks. I tried to insert full-sized photos onto the blog entries though, and the embedded code only allows them to go in as thumbnails. I trawled the forums, and looked at the live demo and various sites that use it, and despite there being a large image on the Expound live demo theme page, I simply can’t get anything bigger than a thumbnail on mine. When I look at the advanced coding in the pictures, it has thumbnail embedded in it, and removing the coding doesn’t change anything. The featured front page images work fine, but all the other images I have on blog entries are from when I had the now discontinued Fresh & Clean theme.
  I then found a way round this, by deleting all the code within the image on its jpg name. It uploads with a size restriction and I’m not sure why – there is a w150 embedded in the jpg link to my media. If I delete that and everywhere else it comes up, I have found the image inserts as a thumbnail, then I take off the embedded size, end up with a huge image that I can progressively downsize to fit. It’s very hit and miss though, and takes ages. There must be a way of uploading them the size I want them from the start though.
  I would very much appreciate some help! I have spent days fiddling with coding when I should be writing, but I do want lots of images on the site.
  Thanks!

  There IS a way of uploading them at the size you want, but that only applies to new images you are uploading, not to your pre-existing media library.

  It shouldn’t thumbnail all of the images though, that’s very strange. I thought the default was to Full Size them. Some themes are finicky, however. Might you choose a different one and see how that looks?
