The problem is that I only have 3 pages in my blog (Home, About me, Geogebra) and I don't know where this one has come from and why it doesn't show any images??? I'd be happy to change it but I don't know how to.

It's "danpearcymaths.wordpress.com/author/danpearcymaths/" which is a page that looks a bit awkward and doesn't show any of the pictures or media in my blog.

Does anyone know what this is all about? At the very least I need to change this page so that it looks like my homepage.
