(descriptions, pictures, links) anything that will make it crystal clear what you want<br /> 2. what have you tried in order to accomplish this? (we're hear to help you learn thematic, not do it for you... unless you want to hire any of us)<br /> 3. what results are you getting from what you are trying?<br /> 4. how is this different from what you are expecting?</p> <p>cheers. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/customising-featured-images-in-thematic#post-26737 Tue, 01 May 2012 21:27:18 +0000 webmakerholly 26737@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Space36, did you figure this out?
