Post Thumbnails

Sea Coast Church makes use of WordPress’ featured thumbnail feature. This allows you to have an image associated with your post with a minimal amount of fuss. They appear in the category view, on the single view and also in your RSS feed. It’s easy to use and helps your site stand out. WordPress even handles all the resizing for you. How great is that?
