Help with Oxygen image display, please?
-
I’ve changed theme to Oxygen but can’t get my images to display correctly on the page. I’ve tried all manner of resizing, but being technically incompetent, it’s been to no avail. Site is http://www.broadssheet.com. Can anyone help me do this easily, please?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Please consult the detailed theme description here http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/oxygen/ There are also many threads that explain how the Oxygen theme is designed to operate.
https://en.forums.wordpress.com/tags/oxygenIn 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
Page templates can be set under the “Page Attributes” section on the page editor screen. For more information on Page Attributes:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-attributes/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.
If you failed to upload and set a featured image of the correct dimensions in each post then until you do upload one into each one the gray box will be there.
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

Hi. Thanks for responding. I’ve tried resizing the pictures to the recommended sizes, but they are still displaying incorrectly and nothing I read in the links you post above seemed to have a fix. I’m going to try and go through every point you have made once more though and let you know if I can solve it…:)

Every blog has screen options. The Screen Options pull down tab is located in the upper right corner of your Dashboard. See the image here please http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options/

Hi, I’ve just been reading that page, but for some reason mine doesn’t have this on the pull down

Are you logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog?

Yes, I have now gone into dashboard and screen options are there! Sorry, told you I was technically incompetent. But no mention of ‘page attributes module’ just displaying:
‘Right Now, Recent Comments, Your Stuff ,What’s Hot, QuickPress, Recent Drafts, Stats and all are ticked…’ -
a) Each dashboard screen has different screen options. The ones you mentioned are the screen options of the main dashboard screen, not the page edit screen.
b) What exactly do you mean by “displaying incorrectly”?
