  Hi,

  I’m having a problem with the picture in my blogpost. When I click on the blogpost the picture is there, and it’s also showing up as a featured image as I want it to, but when I look at the main site there’s only the title of the post and the text, without the picture that’s also in the post. How do I change that? I want the picture to be seen when looking at the post on the main site too.

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

  You are using the Structure theme. See here so you know how it’s designed > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2010/05/01/introduction-to-structure/

  Thanks timethief but I already looked through that and it did not help.

  Oh really? I’m surprised by that. Exactly what size are the featured images you set? Featured images cannot show up if smaller than the required dimensions. See here:

  The picture IS showing up as a featured theme, but I also inserted it to be in the post itself and there it does NOT show up when I’m on the main site. If you click on yamyameventproduction.wordpress.com, you see the picture (dining table) as a featured image which is great, but if you scroll down to the blogpost NOMA you can only see the title and the text but not the picture. That’s my problem.

  Howdy! Images will not appear on the home page in the post content area when using Structure, as it displays only the post excerpt.

  To add an image to the post excerpt manually, you can do so using HTML and crafting an excerpt in the Excerpt field. The HTML to add an image looks like this, replacing the SRC part with the URL to your image file:

  <img src="http://yamyameventproduction.wordpress.com/path/to/my-image.jpg">

  However, this may not produce the best results, as images are typically not meant to appear in excerpts. In this case, it may be easier to switch to a theme that displays full post content on the home page.

  I hope this clarifies!
