  Your blog is displaying correctly ie. the way it it is coded to display. The Duster theme does not display a sidebar on single pages and posts. Is that what you are referring to or not?

  @sonoarrivato, is what you are wanting is the full-width image?

  ehy.. i don’t know how and why but seems that my problem solved itself.

  the full width image for the featured post is easy to make. just put an image “1300×900” as “featured image” in the post. easy.

  @afileo

  you have to create a “new page” and in theme template choose “showcase template”. easy ;)

  Thanks for the suggetion, trust me I tried already and for some reason I haven’t been able to get it working. All I want to do is to resemble the duster theme layout out feature in the theme page which clearly states “Feature & Sticky” but I haven’t been able to do this on my blog.

  Any help would be highly appreciated, cheers

  @afileo
  Regarding http://blogafi.org/
  Step by step …
  1. Did you create a static page, and choose the Showcase Template under page templates, and assign it as the front page of your blog in Settings -> Reading?
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-attributes/#template
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/
  You may specify another page for your blog posts at the same time.
  Did you do these things?
