Great Idea but needs some work

I have been testing this plugin for a month. I like the idea of the plugin and I think it has a lot of potential. I’m unable to use the product at this time because of a few bugs. Here is what I found wrong.

1. Does not grab featured image. it grabs the first image inside a post.
2. Does not pull post from sub categories. for example. You have a category called gear. You add sub categories called apparel and bags. It will not pull posts from apparel or bags if you select to pull from category.
3. Does not allow the title and desc to go over image unless you select popup.
4. Does not allow you to change color of desc box
