Sight image slider is not appearing

    Hello everyone,
    I recently changed from Oxygen Theme, to Sight Theme.
    In the first one, I was using a slider show, but when changing to the new them, is not appearing. I have my sticky posts set, and I have chosen a static page same as the last theme. Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to change all the image sizes to fit them in the new slider?
    Thank you very much for the help!

    The blog I need help with is vueltaalmundoen80semanas.wordpress.com.

    HOW?? How did you resolve this problem I am having the same issue.
    I can only get one sticky post to show in my slider. Even then the posts won't show in recent articles. I am using the showcase page as my home static page. I need help with this. Everything was working fine - now, I have no idea. My content is there but I can't see it. HELP! My deadline is Sept 4.

    Hi there! Here I am a month later :)
    I recently switched to the Sight theme. I have it set to latest posts and marked three posts as sticky. Only the first post marked as sticky shows in the slider. Thoughts?

    Theme description: http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/sight/

    Featured Slider
    Sight displays up to 30 of your latest sticky posts http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/#sticky-posts that have featured images http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/ in a prominent slider on the front page. To add a post to the slider, mark it as sticky and give it a featured image.

    Sight featured images
    Large: 640 x 290 in the Sticky posts slider
    Small: 290 x 290 thumbnails are used on the home, category, tag, archives, and search pages.

    Thank you! I had read this many times and failed to note the part about selecting an image within the sticky post as the featured image. Thanks!

    Have you try going to Tools/Reading, there I think you should take the front page you previously set of. Try choosing your latest posts..
