Related Portfolio Items in “Portpolio Posts”

Hi,

I have 2 questions here….

1) For a post within portfolio, there is a defaulted carousel at the end of the content. How do I Increase the amount of items shown here? By default it is set at 5. Let’s say if I want to change it to 10 or 8, where can I make this change?

2) Is there a new version of the theme coming out soon? The last update seemed quite a while ago. I am intending to install this theme for another site and wouldn’t want to re-update the theme if it is going to get released soon.
