  Hello! I’m using the Manifest theme, and I’m basing this blog on photography so I want to be able to enlarge my photos on my posts. I’ve used Tumblr’s customizing settings before, but not WordPress, so I’m still clueless about this form of CSS editing. I want the photos to reach almost to the entire post window.

  An example of an image post should be here: http://katperture.wordpress.com/2014/05/28/precision-2/

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

  Hi – can you just tell me please – when you say the default width is 500px does that mean that the Manifest theme will automatically re-size your photos to that width or should I resize them manually before uploading ? – thanks

  Larger images will be automatically resized to that width – no need to upload at exactly that width.
