  • Hi rottyranch,

    Your could try changing
    $thumbnail = get_the_post_thumbnail($post->ID);

    to

    get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, 'thumbnail' );      // Thumbnail (Note: different to Post Thumbnail)
get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, 'medium' );         // Medium resolution
get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, 'large' );          // Large resolution
get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, 'full' );           // Original resolution

    For alignment you may want to amend or create some CSS targeting the .featured-image class.

    Have a look at this article for more info.

    Let me know how you get on.
    Drew
