  First off, great work Lance …especially fixing all the bugs. I see you responding on all these forum posts.

  A few issues I noticed…

  1) When putting a photo in a post the “percentage” buttons don’t work …70%, 80%, 90%, etc. The photo is always shown at 100% (or resized to fill the width of the main column. Is this a bug, or set up like that.

  2) The top page buttons are just blocks. On the preview for the theme it shows them as the stitching type… no big deal and they are fine the way they are …but just pointing that out as something I noticed.

  3) A general question – Is there a way to show just a summarization in stead of the full article on your home page.

  Great work,
  John

  Hello happypoppeye,

  1. I can’t repeat this one. Could you tell us your browser version and how to repeat the steps to see the issue?

  2. Yes, the screenshots on the blog post might need to be updated to reflect that the menu links don’t have the stitch effects.

  Lance – the browser version is IE8.

  For # 1) – when I add an image to a post, in this instance from a URL, you add and than the “edit images” box comes up. Next to the picture is a “size” chart with 130%, 120%, 110%, 100%, 90%, etc, etc. No matter what percentage I seem to choose, down to 60%, the photo stays the same size.

  It looks like the theme is automatically sizing the photo to, which really isn’t a big issue – almost a plus in most instances. But just a quirk I saw.

  Thanks for the reply,
  John

  Great, thanks for the extra information. I cannot promise a quick fix on this one, but I’ll make a note of it.
