Bold News is a premium theme and you paid for support direct from the theme designer. You have also edited the CSS and that could be a factor. Read-access to the premium themes forum is now open to all users so you can search to see if your question has been previously asked and answered there. The premium theme forums are at http://premium-themes.forums.wordpress.com/ with separate sections for each theme. http://premium-themes.forums.wordpress.com/forum/bold-news

If you are not successful when searching there is a link for the specific Premium Theme support forum for your theme under Appearance -> Themes in your blog’s Dashboard, but do note that the premium theme must be active and you must be signed in as the user who purchased it in order to see it and post to it.

a) I can't see because your blog is set to private.
b) To explain my "isn't really possible": The dimensions of featured images are set in PHP, not CSS, so you cannot change them. You can use CSS editing to make the images show full-width, but they won't be real larger versions, they will be the default ones blown-up, which means terrible quality.

As you can see, I got rid of the right sidebar so I want the featured image to be as wide as the content is. But since I want to increase the dimensions, looks like you have already answered my question. Thank you.

The ones that show in the slider, or the thumbnails below the slider, or the ones that show in the "recent posts" section?
b) Decrease or increase the dimensions? The latter isn't really possible.

I just started a new thread. After looking through your site a bit, I bet you'd enjoy reading The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. I read it a few years ago and I think about it everyday. :)

To do that you need some sort of scripting (they use AJAX) and we cannot use script here at WordPress.com for security reasons. I'm not sure what to suggest since I can't think of anything close to that really.

You can choose a theme with a post slider at the top, or you can implement a slideshow on the main page, but that isn't going to be very close to what you are seeing with that theme.

That is to say I'd like a welcome message that disappears and is replaced by a gallery based on the user/viewer's selection from the thumbnails below.

How to?

The best approximation I have is this page:
http://discimages.ca/galleries/faces-2/

Which looks similar, but is wrong.

The look and Functionality that I want is this:

It could be that the software created a downsized image to fit the original dimensions.

In the publish module on the custom CSS page, make sure and set the "content width" to 910 too.

In addition, since your theme is a responsive design, you don't want to set a "width" you want to set a "max-width" so that the theme will still respond properly to varying screen sizes, such as on smartphones an tablets. Instead of what you have, add the following.

#main {
max-width: 910px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
