   Hi,

   I am developing the website for a client.

   I currently have the theme uploaded to a test site on my own website

   http://www.midbrainmarketing.co.uk/push

   You can see the portfolio picture I added.

   The greyed out photo actually shrinks so you can still see some of the colour version.

   Can you tell me why this happens? I have tried uploading various photos and the same happens each time.

   Can you also tell me the optimum size for the graphics before I upload them?

   Finally, Am I using the correct method to get my pictures uploaded.

   I go to "add new portfolio item"
   Then underneath where the content goes there is a box that is called "featured media"
   I upload the image here.
   Once it is uploaded The image box pops open and I click on "add to gallery"

   Do I need to select any specific settings with regard to the size? eg Thumbnail, medium, large or fullsize.?

   Thanks

   Alan

   Hi Alan,

   Try creating a new portfolio item with an image size bigger than width: 465px and height: 346px.

   You might also need to regenerate your thumbnails with http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/ for older portfolio items if you re-upload a different photo.

   The method you described is correct. None of the wordpress size selections matter for the theme as it uses its own sizes/attachments.
