  I looked through those, found the theme Ascetica which with the Live Demo seems to have what I want (scrolling “featured post 1 and 2”) However, I can’t find where I can set up those scrolling posts now. Not under “posts” in dashboard and there is only one option for featured image as opposed to multiple that could be scrolled through

  Please read the theme description here http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/ascetica/ as that’s where you find the required instructions for setting featured images.

  Featured Post Slider
  Showcase up to 10 of your favorite posts in the responsive slider by marking the post as sticky and setting a featured image that is at least 660px wide.
