  Hi there,

  It looks like you have to manually insert an image into your posts for it to appear on the Archives page.

  All of your posts display images in the Gallery format. Though the theme you’re using was primarily created for photo-blogging, it was designed with displaying one photo at a time in mind.

  Because of this, the Archives page is unable to pull one of the images from your Gallery in its display. As a solution, would you be willing to insert one or all of your pictures individually into your post? This should allow the Archives page to pull an image to display in the thumbnail.

  One option that you may want to look into is pulling one image from your Gallery and inserting it as a thumbnail into your post.

  The image should then fit relatively seamlessly into the overall look of your Gallery, while enabling the Archives page to display images:
