Feature image on Blog posts

Hi,
First off, I would like to say how amazing this theme is! I was using another theme for my site and after hours/weeks of annoyances, I finally decided to give this one a try.
Second, I am having some issues with the Featured image on my blog posts. They are showing up as thumbnails in the blog roll area, which is awesome, but when I click on the actual blog post, the images are showing up really big. The images I am using are all roughly 175px x 170px and shouldn’t be that big when you click on them.
Another odd issue I am having with the blog area is when you are navigating through my site, the “Pre-Qualify for a loan” part on my header breaks when you click on a blog posting. The image shows up on any other page just fine. If you know what is going on, please let me know.
My site is williamdavidcalhoun.com.

    Hi, I Work Here

    Hi Will

    Thanks for your support. Glad to hear you’re enjoying Vantage.

    Featured Images:

    One option is to not display the the featured image on the single post page. You can set that from Appearance > Theme Settings > Blog > Featured Image, un-check that setting.

    Alternatively you could try using the following two plugins:

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-image-sizes/
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

    Using Simple Image Sizes you can locate, in it’s interface, the single post featured image, if you’re using a sidebar it will be: 720 x 380. You can then change the dimensions of that image. Then you can run Regenerate Thumbnails to output your featured images at their new size.

    To fix the header issue, navigate to Appearance > Widgets, edit the Visual Editor widget in the header widget area, click the Text tab, locate the image src tag and replace it with this:

    src="http://williamdavidcalhoun.com/wp-content/uploads/callheader3-300x73.png" 
    

    For some reason the image url is relative right now, we need it to be absolute, like it is above.

    Hope that helps.
