Image Size & "read more"

Hi,

I use your theme to build an Intranet site for my company. The minimalist style of your theme looks great. I have two issues:

1) Image size:
I put an image on a page. I wanted to change the image size by typing html/css in the page text box like that (I replaced the source with ### for data security reason only here):

<img class=”alignnone size-full wp-image-186″ src=”###” alt=”” width=”75″ height=”100″ />

It doesn’t work. The size stays the full image size. Then I deleted the class (that says “full size”) but still it doesn’t work. Why?

2) Read more:
When I use the “more” tag it doesn’t show a “read more” link or button under the post excerpt, so our staff members doesn’t know on first sight if the text continues (you can’t always know it by content). It would be great if you could make the “read more” button show up. Best solution for me would be a graphic sign instead of the text “read more” because our staff is German.

Keep up the good work!
