 * Question: I have widened the area of the slider, therefore widening the slider.
   Now my pictures do not fit into the slider correctly? What size should my feature
   picture be? Specifically how do I find out what ratio my picture needs to be?
 * I am new to blogging and website design so all information would be appreciated.

 * currently the slider just shows the top left corner of a post. It does not change
   if i change the dimensions either…

 * Currently, I can see two images from 3 post (one with no image).
    For me, I can
   see them just fine. Although the image from “Teaching English in Thailand: Salary”
   isn’t the best quality but I guess this is not the issue. Did you changed the
   slider size via the “Custom CSS” or do you use a child theme?

 * hey thanks for the response!
 * i changed it via custom css. My problem is that the featured image I have selected
   for “teaching english in thailand: salary” is showing the top of the original
   image. It is not showing the image that I have cropped. The part showing is the
   top unfocused part of the original image.
 * Is there a way to find out what dimensions I need for the picture or what ratio?
 * Thanks for the help.

 * Can you past your custom CSS [here](http://pastebin.com/) and post the link?
   
   For my understanding, you changed the ratio of the slider in your CSS?! You should
   be able to see your new ration in the css you wrote.
 * Don’t thank me just yet. I hope I can help 😉

 * The ratio is for the columns. 75% and 25%
 *     ```
       #primary {
       width: 75%;
       }
       #secondary {
       width: 25%;
       }
       ```
   
 * i dont know the new ratio for the slider though

 * Ok so I measured it with the Windows Magnifier tool and a desktop Ruler. Maybe
   this sounds a bit strange but it worked for me all the time and are pretty useful
   tools 😉
    Your slider ration is 685 x 305. Try it out and tell me if it worked
   😉

 * Oh and btw, I for my self use the Featured Image size from the theme it self,
   which is 730 x 330 and it works just fine 😉

 * no its still showing a part of the picture that is no longer in the image I have
   specified. Maybe it is having issues uploading.
 * It is showing part of the picture BEFORE i edited the image….

 * If you click on that article through the slider you can see the picture that 
   is supposed to be coming up. Why is it different than the image showing in the
   slider
