ok I did figure out how to get my gallery photos larger but now I need to edit my gallery and remove the photos that are awkward in the new size. I still have not figure out how to do this. I have tried editing button but the photos do not show up on the inner page to make changes. And I still have no answer of how to put a slideshow of the gallery at the bottom page. ? Still in question….This site was much more user friendly before the upgrade.

Hi there – Sure thing, I’m happy to help you get your site set up correctly. But let’s work on one aspect at a time, so I can better follow what you’re trying to accomplish. Premium themes can be a little difficult to set up initially. Can you please try to work through the steps that are listed here to set up your site?
http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/photography/support/If you come to a step that you get stuck on, please reply to this thread, and tell me which particular step you’re stuck at, and what’s happening when you try to follow it. Please also link me directly to the specific page or post on your blog that you’re having trouble with. We’ll work through like that, until we get everything straightened out. :)

Eurello,
Well that was clear and also helped I got the home page showing first and for some reason the gallery I created yesterday disappeared but I just put it back up again…So what is now showing is the slide show in a very big format…if I could make the screen smaller I would like that…but not to small….And I still need to know how to make the right size so the photos fit the slide show….I actually had this website perfect for over the last year..and when I came back to change the home page the upgrade seem not to be working with what I had already done. So all I really need for now is to get my Home Page fine tune and I will be set zenartandtea.com I hope you can give me a formula for fitting the photos to the gallery and the slideshow that it looks very clean. Thanks for your help.

Hi there – Your theme, Photography, did recently upgrade to a new version, which improved things, but it might also have made some aspects of your site appear differently. You can read about this here:
http://premium-themes.forums.wordpress.com/topic/photography-20-update-available-now?replies=1.So what is now showing is the slide show in a very big format…if I could make the screen smaller I would like that…but not to small
You can see the exact sizes that the images display at under the “Image Dimensions” format here:
http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/photography/support/For the homepage slideshow, the ideal dimensions are 960px (width) by 640px (height)
To make your images appear perfectly, try resizing them to those sizes before uploading.
If it’s the size of the slideshow window itself that you want to adjust, Photography is intended to have that full-page slideshow. You can also use the regular WordPress.com slideshow on any of your pages, which is not so large:
