  In Oxygen theme, I successfully uploaded an image, but the crop button is inactive; that is, when I click on it, the graphic doesn’t respond.(Note that the ‘rotate’ and other buttons do respond, just not the ‘crop’ button.

  Is this because you can’t crop an image in Oxygen? Whatever the reason, does anyone know how I can work aroudn this problem (other thatn crop the image before uploading)?

  Oxygen Theme Description http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/oxygen/ Live demo site http://oxygendemo.wordpress.com/

  In Oxygen you can either have a Home page that displays your posts or a static front page ie. a Showcase template. http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/#setting-up-a-static-front-page

  Showcase page template
  When you first activate Oxygen, you’ll see your posts in a traditional blog format but if you’d like to showcase your content in an online magazine-like fashion, then you can use the Showcase Page template. …

  Sticky post thumbnails are 750 pixels wide in the featured slider
  Regular post thumbnails are 450 pixels wide
