resolvedHi,
I'm really enjoying building the dynamic templates - I think it's a brilliant idea. One thing I want to do however for my home page, is to include a full-width featured image of my latest post (just like in a single post with a full-width feature image) and then the next section would be the blog. Is this possible? I haven't been able to "recreate" the full-width feature image single blog post at all, so I've been keeping it as default and not attaching a default template to it.
Thanks
To make a full width featured image you can use the slideshow element. I think you can set it to display the image from the last post. Then set your blog element underneath it.
The slideshow element in the Template Builder has nothing to do with the blog slider. It's a separate element. You set the size of the image in the same way you set the size of a featured image in a post - there are slideshow settings underneath the text entry box when you create a post. You set the image size there (full size).
Hmm perhaps I'm not being clear. What I want to accomplish is on my homepage, I want the first blog post to have a full-width feature image (960px). Then, below it I will have other blog posts that are regular-sized with a preview image (600px).

This configuration is not possible because Shoutbox does not offer such a blog layout. Like rumblefish suggested above you can create a fullwidth slideshow which displays the images from the blog page or any other page but you can't display featured images from posts.
