To make your blog looks better, you need to include a manual excerpt for every post (like my blog). You can add that while editing or adding new post. You can, however, leave your excerpt empty and wordpress will automatically make an excerpt for you, but all HTML tags would be auto removed.
Post Thumbnail is a square image of size 125 x 125 pixels, shown at blog index, related posts and search.
Post Image is an image of size 550 x 190 pixels, shown at single post page, below the post title.
To beautify your blog, try to include post thumbnails for every post (if possible).
In most cases, not all your featured posts are in the same category. You can create a new category (let’s say I called it : Featured) and choose it as the “Featured Category” at the theme option page.
Step-by-step guide to activate Featured Gallery
Some users reported that WP-PageNavi plugin causes the sidebar and footer to be missing. If you have WP-PageNavi plugin installed, you should deactivate the plugin.

wow its amazing theme. thanks for this great theme. Two thumb for you
I have problems using this theme:
1. My ‘Loading Twitters…’ Part do not work. Should I enter ‘@’ or not when I set my Twitter account?
2. I have entered my feedburner ID correctly, but the subscription by email function failed.
3. Maybe the comments.php somewhat conflicts with the original codes in wordpress 2.9, so that I cannot set the latest post comments in the first page.
Sorry for the late reply. I was busy. I will reply straight to the point.
1. You don’t have to
2. Please refer to this post and check that if you have entered the value correctly.
