  You need to set a featured image of the exact dimensions required by the theme.

  Here’s the theme description link http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/the-columnist/

  Featured Images
  If you assign a feature image to one of your posts it will display differently depending on which template you are viewing. For instance: on the home page as well as all other pages that display multiple posts, your featured image will appear cropped at 180 pixels wide by 180 pixels tall. In cases where your original uploaded featured image is 610 pixles wide or wider, it will also appear at the very top of single posts and pages.

  but i dont want a featured image. it will show in the top of the post.

  for other posts i insert images/galleries and wordpress automatically choses one of the images to put on the front page. why not for this post?

  Hi there! Was wasting a little time around the forums and noticed your question.. Did you by any chance just ‘copy and paste’ the image / s into the post or ‘upload via insert media’ cause it would definitely have to be ‘uploaded’…
