I thought you had to add thumbnail images on a per post basis?  I'd love to know if there was another way.

 

As for Flikr, avoid using the url from their site.  Much better to download the creative commons pic and host it yourself.  Nothing looks worse than that big missing pic in an article.

 

Or even worse someone switches the hot linked picture to something else.

If you like the thumbs in teasers you can use the flickr url (pick the small sized url), in your post scroll down to the post images and thumbnail section, remove all the <a href..., just paste the http://.. url part of the image, add alt text, set the dimension if you don't like the default... It will show images without you having to download them. 

 

If you don't want to show the images, you cna remove them. I don't remember off the top how I did it, I will let you know when I could get to my site.

I usually download the creative commons ones and post them to my site (after I resize them smaller so they dont take up a ton of space)

That is part of why I am considering getting rid of them. I saw that menu but it didn't look like I could pull them out for just that part of the page.

If you want to tinker with them you can change them in the "Design Options" menu under the "Post Images and Thumbnails" section (Im using Thesis 1.8 so it may be slightly different if you're using something else).

I have thumbnail images in my teasers at the bottom of the homepage.

1. Do you think they look good?

2. How do I remove them?
