      icontut,

      You need to enable your FeedBurner API awareness in your FeedBurner settings and have followers, otherwise go into the plugin settings and set a manual count.

    Hey Jason,
    Love the theme, I purchased it already. Now I see in the screen shots you’ve got links to ‘articles’ ‘inspiration’ ‘tutorials’ etc. I was wondering how I would go about employing that with your theme? I’d love to have pages linked up there that show will show a list of articles that have been tagged or placed in the category ‘inspiration’ or ‘tutorials’ similar to what you’ve got going on here at vagrantradio. Any help would be appreciated

    Man, This is a great theme and from reading ALL of the comments on themeforest, you have put in some work.

    I really hope you keep creating these themes and are not put off my some of the minor questions you seem to be getting.

    Keep up the great work!

    How do I put the image as “miniature”? and what should be the size of it? There is a way to put a picture in miniature and the other in the initial post (in the field “feature”)?

    PTBR
    Como faço para colocar a imagem como “miniatura”? e qual deve ser o tamanho dela? existe uma forma de colocar uma imagem na miniatura inicial e outra na postagem (dentro do campo “feature”)?
