  Hey guys, I’m having a problem with images not showing up on my posts on my homepage. I am thinking that it may be related to size, as the only one that shows up is quite large compared to the others. Can anyone tell me if this is correct?

  If my question is vague, please take a look at my blog at:

  The grey rectangles above each post should be showing an image like the single one at the bottom (the Michael Kors Holiday one). Any help would be appreciated!

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

  If you do not upload a featured image of the exact dimensions required by the theme into your posts then you get that gray box.

  Oxygen Theme Description http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/oxygen Live demo site http://oxygendemo.wordpress.com/

  In 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

  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.

  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

  If you don’t see the page attributes module then make sure that you don’t have it hidden in your screen options http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options/
