  Have you consulted your theme description?

  Featured Post Slider
  Featuring posts in a slider on your home page is easy. You just need sticky posts with Featured Images. Every sticky post you have (up to ten posts) that has a Featured Image (at least 850 pixels wide, 400pixels height) attached will show up in the scrolling marquee.

  Setting a Featured Image http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/#setting-a-featured-image
  If you don’t see the Featured Image module on your Add New or Edit Post page, please make sure you’ve selected Featured Image in your Screen Options.

  The dimensions specified by the theme here for setting featured images are critical.

  I actually deleted the image completely…re-scaled using 510 x 550 which is what the picture is scaled to in the post. It worked! Thanks for leading me in the right direction. Best, – dRC
