 We've been discussing about the placeholders since the beginning. The
 purpose of the placeholders was to encourage users to attach featured
 images that make this theme to have the best look. This is originated with
 the base theme, Further, being specifically designed as a magazine theme
 where featured image is one of the most common elements.

 However, after hearing invaluable feedback, I'm removing the placeholders.
 Still the theme will look way better with featured images and users who
 decide to add them will get the best of it but removing the placeholders
 will make it more general as a default theme and will broaden the use
 cases for the theme, for example, less image blogs and sites.
