I read the recommended information and implemented per the instructions. However, even after assigning tags to my two "poetry" posts and setting the field in settings/reading/featured content/tag = Poetry, the poetry posts' featured images do not show up in a slider on the homepage.

After reading some other's questions regarding similar issues, I'm wondering if the Widely theme requires that the homepage be set to Your Latest Post rather than Static (static is how it's currently set). Is this perhaps where I have gone wrong?

Please go back to the theme description page and http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/widely/

Featured Images
Widely supports Featured Images, which, if set, will appear above your content on the blog index and single view, bold and beautiful.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/#setting-a-featured-image

Quick Specs (all measurements in pixels):

The main column width is 800.
The featured image is 800 by 330 (width, height).
Images in the featured content slider are 960 by 490 (width, height).
Custom header images are 960 in width and flexible in height.

Custom Header
Widely supports a flexible-height custom header image, which can be configured under Appearance -> Header.

The live demo of Widely shows the header photo automatically changing on a rotational basis (along with buttons to manual advance and reverse).

Please explain what steps need to be taken to activate it.

If so then put that logo in a text widget and display it in the sidebar because it's never going to display where you indicate.

Featured Images need to be at least 888px wide to appear in the post slider -- it looks as though yours are around 600px wide and therefore too small. Try uploading larger featured images to your sticky posts and I'll bet you'll see that slider.

You can read more about how to configure the Forever slider here.

Hope this helps!
