      Wes,

      My images have a 45-46% ratio.  Usually they are 400 x 183 or real close to that.  I am trying to figure out the slider settings, as well as the media settings for uploading the images. I am not getting the full image on the slider and in the featured areas it is a little off as well

        When you upload your featured image, make sure you choose the correct size (small, medium, large).  The option will become available as soon as you upload (should be near the bottom of the popup screen).

        Also, you may need to download and run a program called Regenerate Thumbnails – http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/ this will adjust all of your images to fit better in places like your slider, portfolio, etc (wherever a thumbnail/featured image is being used).  We all use this plugin anytime we make a change, or add a new images to make sure that everything adjusts immediately.

          That was a poorly asked question.  I have set my media settings with the correct ratio and upload some test photos.  However, they do not fit/resize as expected.  Would you look at it and give me some hints.

          Please look at the second image in the slider and also use the menu to go to sample page (which is a portfolio page), you will see what I am saying.

            The slider is showing a different image than what shows on the “Sample” page.

            The slider featured image currently links to this – http://testmonkey.info/wp-content/uploads/green-marble-700×250.jpg

            While the portfolio links to this – http://testmonkey.info/wp-content/uploads/green-marble.jpg

            The default width for the slider is 732px, try adding that to the width in your slider settings, and then add the correct height that matches your image (which appears to be 321px).  After you change the size, make sure to Regenerate your thumbnails as mentioned earlier and it should adjust the image from being cutoff , to actually showing the full image.

              Wes,

              I am having the hardest time getting media sizes correct.  Would you look at my portfolio pages on a site and tell me why they are not lining up and what I need to do to fix.  Here is a link to one of the pages, you can look at all 3 portfolio pages and see the same problem.

                On or around line 786, change the float: left; to float: none; and add display: inline-block and vertical-align: top;.

                #content .portfolio {
                display: inline-block;
                float: none;
                margin: 0 20px 40px 0;
                overflow: hidden;
                padding: 0;
                width: 220px;
                vertical-align: top;
                }
