Showcase Section
All posts displayed in the Showcase section have to be assigned to the “Showcase” category. If there’s more than 1 post in that category, posts will be displayed randomly. If in the post there is declared as large image – only image will be displayed on the frontpage. If there’s no large image defined – you will see post title and content.

IE6 PNG Fix
The template has an integrated PNG fix for IE6 that allows transparent PNG32 images to show, as intended, in the IE6 browser. All you need to do is add class=”png” to the element such as the change in the following examples:-
<img src="images/sample1.jpg" alt="sample" />
Change to
<img src="images/sample1.jpg" alt="sample" class="png" />
