Oxygen Sticky Post Not Working for Me

    For some reason I can not get the stick post showcase feature of Oxygen to work on my blog. I've set up the random header images for the time being, but would really like to get the featured image showcase working. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    It seems to me that some them I used in the past has gotten my sticky ability all out of sorts, but I don't know where to start to fix the problem.

    The blog I need help with is dispersedthoughts.wordpress.com.

    Do these help?
    sticky posts (not pages!)
    featured images
    Sticky post thumbnails are 750 pixels wide in the featured slider
    Regular post thumbnails are 450 pixels wide

    Showcase page template
    When you first activate Oxygen, you’ll see your posts in a traditional blog format but if you’d like to showcase your content in an online magazine-like fashion, then you can use the Showcase Page template.

    The Showcase Page template offers a featured slider for Sticky Posts. To use the template, create or edit a page, and assign it to the Showcase Page template from the Page Attributes module. If you’d like use the Showcase Page template on your front page, go to Settings → Reading and set the Front page option to Static Page. Select the page you just assigned the Showcase Page template to as your front page and then choose another page to serve as your blog page. http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/oxygen/

    @timethief Thank you. Now that the image width is drilled and sunk into my skull things are working now as they should. User error big time. My post for today is proof and the picture attached to it is huge. More than the requirement.

    Thank you.
