    Hi Everyone,

    I bought the Parallax theme through a third party and was told i could modify it to look similar to this http://www.garypeppergirl.com

    Right now my site looks like this:

    http://www.livingboldly.ca

    My two main questions are:

    1.) Is there a way for me to modify the image slider to be 1600x1050 and get rid of the border padding around it? I've tried adjusting the size of the slider in the genesis settings but it wont work.

    2.) The pink background image is definitely not for me, I can remove it but when I try to adjust the slider image, it acts as if there is still a background image/border around it. Is there a way to modify this as well?

    3.) My blog roll is the right size and position I would want, but for some reason the featured images aren't showing. Does anyone know how to fix this? (yes, they do actually have featured images attached to the posts)

    Thank you so much for your help!

    Hoping to get this resolved quickly because I have a time sensetive post I need to complete. Any help would be a blessing right now!

    Thank you for your help!

    You need to edit the css in the theme's style.css file. The border and width of the slider is controlled by css found in the .home-section-1 .wrap class beginning on line 1197. Once you change the dimensions of the wrap, I think #2 will take care of itself.

    The featured image should be able to be displayed by checking "Include the Featured Image?" under the Genesis/Theme Settings menu in the Content Archives section.

    Thank you so much for your reply!

    I got the featured images to work, however the slider still will not resize (even with the adjustment you mentioned above)

    I've contacted the theme creator to see what I can do. Thank you for your help with this!

    Hi LivingBoldly, how did you get the slider to go full width? Nice job by the way!
