 * Hello,
    enjoying your theme so far, however I found that thumbnails for recent
   posts on the main page are taken from original featured images instead of using
   resized versions. I would like to to keep my featured images with original size
   so the slider can use them without loosing any quality. Do you know any workaround?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Hi, I am also using Tortuga theme but for now I am not setting featured images
   on the posts. However, I do on another site with a different theme. I also stumbled
   upon on the issue you have on that theme.
 * I wrote here how to fix it [http://learnedia.com/customize-colormag-wp-theme/](http://learnedia.com/customize-colormag-wp-theme/)
 * You might find it useful and apply the same solution to Tortuga theme. If you
   do, please let me know.

 * Thanks learnrr, unfortunately in case of tortuga theme there is no reference 
   to featured images in content.php
    I don’t speak php any good haha. I will throw
   you whole content.php and maybe you will be able to figure this out 🙂
 * The template for displaying articles in the loop with full content:
 *     ```
       <article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
   
       		<?php merlin_post_image_archives(); ?>
   
       		<header class="entry-header">
   
       			<?php the_title( sprintf( '<h2 class="entry-title"><a href="%s" rel="bookmark">', esc_url( get_permalink() ) ), '</a></h2>' ); ?>
   
       			<?php merlin_entry_meta(); ?>
   
       		</header><!-- .entry-header -->
   
       		<div class="entry-content clearfix">
       			<?php the_content( esc_html__( 'Read more', 'merlin' ) ); ?>
       		</div><!-- .entry-content -->
   
       		<footer class="entry-footer">
   
       			<?php merlin_entry_footer(); ?>
   
       		</footer><!-- .entry-footer -->
   
       	</article>
       ```
   
 * In this case it will be probably prat:
 * <?php merlin_post_image_archives(); ?>
 * that gets images to be displayed, but I can’t figure out where and how those 
   are stored.
 * I will take a deeper look into this later this afternoon.

 * Hey bigtnt, I took a quick glance and it seems to me that the function you need
   to modify resides in the /inc/template-tags.php file
 * It is the tortuga_post_image_single() function that is called in the content-
   single.php file
 * Let me know if you manage to solve the issue, I might deal with it also next 
   week
 * Regards
