picture size for fullwidth blog-posts?

Hi there

according to this thread I removed the sidebar from my blog posts by manipulating single.php.
Now my single posts do have exactly the same width as the home page and the slider. Hence, I assumed that I may use pictures of an identical size also for the blog posts. But why do the pictures not fit there?
I am using 930 x 480 pictures for the slider but they are too big for the fullwidth blog-post. Why?

Thanks, stephan.

 

Hello,

Paste this code in Custom CSS
Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

Code:

.post.single a img.aligncenter {
width: 930px;
height: 480px;
}
.page-content .content-bar {
padding-right: 5px;
}

 

Hi Gourav,

Thanks for the quick reply. Your suggestion does not exactly solve my problem:
- if I use your code, pictures are distorted;
- hence, I removed "height: 480 px". This lead to the problem that pictures are not fully displayed on the right hand frame of the page, and also the blog text is being cut off on the right hand side.
- I ended up with this code:

.post.single a img.aligncenter {
width: 910px;
}​

This seems to solve my problem. And for future blog posts I may change your code adequatly.

Thanks for your help.
