    Hi, I want to add an image as a large banner, much like the featured posts sliders. I really like the 'Blast' theme and would like to keep it.

    I have added a new post with the image in it and used it as featured post to show the image on the home page. However, the image points to the blog post which is empty, and also the post appears in the list on the main page.

    Is there any way to keep the image on the home page without linking and showing the post?

    My question will be clarified by visiting http://www.pakistanperspective.com

    Thanks in advance.

    Its easy.

    1- Activated the featured post slider.
    2- Dont matter which category are u gonna use because you want it static.
    3- Go to yourdomain.com/wp-content/themes/blast/images/bg-slider.png and download the image.
    4- Edit this image in photoshop or any other software. Put in the gray area shape the image that you want to show (Note just in the gray shape area, because if you put the image in the whole space you going to lose the shadow effect in the website). Save it.
    5-Overwrite the image using the one that you just edited. upload to http://yourdomain.com/wp-content/themes/blast/images/bg-slider.png using a FTP software.

    That all I hope works for you.
