   Hi I downloaded the New Yorker theme and there doesn't seem to be a readme.txt file. Am I missing something?

   Actually there is an option page within the theme which should be self explanatory, if not, I can provide a readme file.

   Hi Milo, I have options.php but no other page. Maybe I'm not experienced enough in this area, but it doesn't look very self-explanatory.

   I am first trying to figure out how to set up the images for the slider/articles/smaller banners. it looks like the slider needs an image that's about 435 px across, I use a 200-240 px image in my posts, and there is a smaller banner that is about 200 px across.

   Do I need to use custom fields to have the theme grab the right images? And if so what do I name the fields?

   No custom field needed, just big resolution images,
   like minimum 500px,
   the rest will do the theme via a built in script.

   Okay I think I got this figured out. And I also finally figured out what the options page is you were talking about -- in themes on the dashboard. I also found in playing around with it that if I put the big image in an excerpt I can put the smaller image in the post and it grabs the big one for the slider on the home page.

   Am I right in assuming that the smaller images, the ones that are about 200 x 50 px, are just meant to grab a part of the image? We aren't meant to create images for this size?

   Great theme by the way.
