featured image does not work after following the how to section like 100 times!!
-
I tried to set a featured image under my header. It should be possible in the Oxygen theme but it just doenst work. I looked at the recommended settings and formats of my image, as the ‘instant answers’ says but still i cant get it done. In my dashboard the image is set, but it doenst show on the actual page.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I can’t see your blog b/c it is marked “private.”
We just had maybe the same problem with this theme – until we noticed that the featured image must be at least 750 pixels wide.
So – you make sure the image is at least 750 pixels wide, you make the post “sticky” (under Visibility setting at top of right rail on the post as you’re editing it), and then it will show up in the photo ‘slider’.
Hope this helps – we spent hours struggling with this.

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. …Post thumbnails are 470 pixels wide, unless you make the post Sticky to show off in the featured slider, in which case they’re 750 pixels wide. Keep in mind: if you mark a post as Sticky but the featured image is less than 750 pixels wide, then it won’t display in the slider and will still disappear from the river of posts.
Please be aware that you cannot crop the sticky post thumbnails.
Sticky post thumbnails are 750 pixels wide in the featured slider
Regular post thumbnails are 470 pixels wide
