# Featured/background image – size

 * It appears that the script is trying to fetch an image size,_‘thumbnail-size’_,
   for the Featured/background image that is not a WP default.
    It therefore gets
   the original, which is not ideal in many cases. Would it not be better perhaps
   to set this to _‘large’_, or give some option for it
 * `$thumb_url_array = wp_get_attachment_image_src($thumb_id,'thumbnail-size', true);`
 * Many thanks for the plugin
    Oli

 * The reason behind this, and as many people use it; is that the user uploads the
   photo they want to use at the size they want. The plugin needs to use the image
   at its correct size. Although the size could be filtered, this will lead to more
   problems then its worth for many users. Also adding an option to filter the size,
   also may sound like a neat way of providing this; it will in fact cause confusion
   to many users who are not aware of this setting.
 * Unless I am missing something, I don’t believe this is a worthwhile addition 
   at this time?
    It sounds like you are knowledgeable in this area, so feel free
   to modify the php mark-up to suit your sites needs.
