   Allright, go easy on me, I'm very new to all of this... :)
   I would like to arrange most of my pages (except home and single) to show the post title, then the excerpt, then a thumbnail. Is there a way to do this? I've been learning a lot about hooks and filters, and I almost have my head wrapped around it, I think... But I keep getting title, thumb, then excerpt... Any help is appreciated! The site I'm working on is here: www.beta.alohastatemedia.com
   Thanks again everyone!

   woo hooo! finally figured it out. so, I guess the loop builds the $post and all I had to do was rearrange the php to append the excerpt before it appended the thumbnail. Code below just incase anyone needs it:

   // New content loop - sets thumbs to wide and cropped
   function childtheme_override_content() {
   		global $thematic_content_length;
   
   		if ( strtolower($thematic_content_length) == 'full' ) {
   			$post = get_the_content(more_text());
   			$post = apply_filters('the_content', $post);
   			$post = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $post);
   		} elseif ( strtolower($thematic_content_length) == 'excerpt') {
   			$post = '';
   			$post .= get_the_excerpt();
   			$post = apply_filters('the_excerpt',$post);
   			if ( apply_filters( 'thematic_post_thumbs', TRUE) ) {
   				$post_title = get_the_title();
   				$size = apply_filters( 'thematic_post_thumb_size' , array(730,200) );
   				$attr = apply_filters( 'thematic_post_thumb_attr', array('title'	=> 'Go to ' . $post_title) );
   				if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
   					$post .= '<a class="entry-thumb" href="' . get_permalink() . '" title="Go to ' . get_the_title() . '" >' . get_the_post_thumbnail(get_the_ID(), $size, $attr) . '</a>';
   					}
   			}
   		} elseif ( strtolower($thematic_content_length) == 'none') {
   		} else {
   			$post = get_the_content(more_text());
   			$post = apply_filters('the_content', $post);
   			$post = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $post);
   		}
   		echo apply_filters('thematic_post', $post);
   }

   you should also be able to filter it if you are only changing the one conditional. untested...

   //modify default Thematic excerpts
   function childtheme_excerpts($post) {
   	global $thematic_content_length;
   
   	if ( strtolower($thematic_content_length) == 'excerpt' ) {
   	        $post = '';
   		$post .= get_the_excerpt();
   		$post = apply_filters('the_excerpt',$post);
   			if ( apply_filters( 'thematic_post_thumbs', TRUE) ) {
   				$post_title = get_the_title();
   				$size = apply_filters( 'thematic_post_thumb_size' , array(730,200) );
   				$attr = apply_filters( 'thematic_post_thumb_attr', array('title'	=> 'Go to ' . $post_title) );
   				if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
   					$post .= '<a class="entry-thumb" href="' . get_permalink() . '" title="Go to ' . get_the_title() . '" >' . get_the_post_thumbnail(get_the_ID(), $size, $attr) . '</a>';
   					}
   
   	}
   	return $post;
   
   }
   
   add_filter('thematic_post', 'childtheme_excerpts');
