  The theme you are using relies on something called Featured Images to display the images on the front page. (This allows you to set the image, regardless of which or how many images are on that particular post). When you Edit a post, you will see a Featured Image option on the right hand side. For this theme to display the images properly on the home page, this must be set.

  Hatch requires setting a featured image to each post:

  Ah sorry andrewcpht, I had left the browser window open, and didn’t refresh before posting (happened on other threads too).

  Heh, no worries. I figured that’s what was happening. (I’ve managed to do it once or twice today, too.)
