  My featured images on my blog posts are all showing in different sizes on my home page, was wondering if there is a simple way to get them all the same width/height? Been trying it but not having much luck!

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

  I suggest that you use an image editor https://en.support.wordpress.com/media/image-optimization/#image-editing-software to create consistent sizing and to optimize the images for the web https://en.support.wordpress.com/media/image-optimization/ prior to uploading them into your blog.

  Also note that the Penscratch theme does not have featured images listed as feature https://wordpress.com/themes/penscratch/

  Hi, I checked three of your featured images on the main page, and this is the size of the images that were uploaded, and their width to height ratios.

  The 10 Best Ways… : 600 x 600 (1:1)
  5 Places You Shouldn’t… : 900 x 600 (1.5:1)
  10 Wedding Dresses… : 600 x 902 (1: 1.5)

  Penscratch featured image area is 656px x 300px (when configured with a sidebar), which is a ratio of 2.2 to 1 (width to height). If your images are 2.2 or at least 2 to 1 ratio, width to height, they should all come in and show a consistent look in the content area on the main page.

  The images should be landscape orientation since that is the space available (wider than tall) and they should all be right around 2.2 or 2 to one in ratio.
