Could you let me know where I'd include that bit of code? I'll paste the relevant section below: ?php } ?> ID, 'post_thumbnail_value', true) != '') { ?> "><img class="post-image" src="/timthumb.php?src=ID, 'post_thumbnail_value', true); ?>&w=154&h=154&zc=1" alt="" /> "> Posted on by Thanks Pippin,

if(has_post_thumbnail()) {
the_post_thumbnail();

I have so may old posts, and I don't want to go back and have to edit each post and cut and past the image file location. I'd rather just have my Archives.PHP pull the image from what was set as the Featured Images. Exactly.

However, I would rather my theme simply use the image that has been designated as my "Featured Image" (I used a plugin that automatically set my first image in each post as my "Featured Image", therefore, I'd like all those old posts to display that thumbnail.) Here is the code in my Archives.PHP theme that is pulling the image: ?php } ?> ID, 'post_thumbnail_value', true) != '') { ?> "><img class="post-image" src="/timthumb.php?src=ID, 'post_thumbnail_value', true); ?>&w=154&h=154&zc=1" alt="" /> "> Posted on by Right now my theme requests that I insert the specific file location for the image I want to use for my thumbnail when viewing the archives (in a special field box).
