cheers.

Post sliders do not display unless the featured images are the exact dimensions required by the theme.

Featured Content Slider: Use the ‘Featured Content’ options under Settings → Reading to select a tag for your featured content slider. Use this tag on posts with a featured image, and they’ll show up in the slider.

I have added 3 tags, and set the promo 1/2/3 i believe the home promo is already showing up, along with the tagline area and link.

but the main feature slider is not working. How do i get it up?
i've set up a static welcome page, and set the template as the front page. i've uploaded a feature image for this page too.

what else do i need to do? how can i get a few images on the slider, with the different text for each picture?

thank you.
