  I have a couple question about the tonal theme:
  in the theme description and demo the theme displays very large images – when I upload videos right now, the image’s size, as displayed in the page, reaches a max that is much smaller then what is advertised. If I try to embed image from deviantart url it only displays the link, how I can I make my videos and image show on my page as big as possible using the tonal theme?

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

  I am starting to understand how to use CSS, I put in the code revision to turn the menu block into a dark blue green, I see the change works with firebug, I typed it in CSS, saved the changes but nothing happened… I know I’m almost there!! So what am I missing here?
  Thank you for helping

  Hi there!

  In order to have control over the size of your image, and to set it as a featured image, you’ll need to upload the image directly to your WordPress.com site, not use a URL link like the deviantart image.

  To embed the image from deviantart, select Add Media at the top of your editor. And then select Insert from URL from the left.

  I’m not sure what you mean by the menu block. Do you want to turn the background of the menu button and drop down to the same dark green you have as the background of your site? Try this:

  #menu-block {
  	background: #002c35 !important;
  }

  Let me know how I can help further!
