Editing Wordpress Theme
Hi guys,

I'm currently re-constructing my website and have decided to make it using wordpress.
Here's the link
www.techinfo-4u.com

I've managed to customize most of it to my liking so far except for 1 thing. On the home page you see a featured section with the images of the posts in it. It's default size is 610 x 320

I think it's a bit big for me and i would like to reduce the size of it but i can't find the options for it anywhere in the editor under the templates. There is one called "featured.php" and it has some basic settings for it there but none to do with the size of it

Anyone any ideas how i can change it?

Thanks a bunch

My new dimensions for it are 580 x 280 but if i have added an image to large in size it won't shrink it to fit........ is there any way i can do this?

Thanks

My suggestion when it comes to images is to resize them to the ideal dimensions with Photoshop, Fireworks or your favorite graphic program.
You can try specifying the width and height to match the real estate you have but that might create some fuzziness.
