Hello, I’m having a bit of trouble with the blog featured images on my site http://www.shelleyruns.co.za. For new posts, the latest blogs on the home page are making the image landscape even though the image set as featured image is square (700px). Then, the featured image on the actual blog post is cropping itself to landscape too, rather than show the whole image, see: *Login to see link – the original image is greater in height. It seems only when I upload a square featured image does it show the full image (*Login to see link

The only CSS coding I have added is to make the width of the ones on the home page 250px:

.home_blog .imghoverclass img {
max-width: 250px;
max-height: 250px;
}

My settings in Theme Options > Blog as follows:

Blog Post Summary Default: Portrait Image
Blog Post Head Content Default: Image

Please help, it’s doing my head in! 🙂

Thanks!
