First thanks for the awesome theme and support. I've bought a bunch of themes from ThemeForest and none come close to the customization and support of the BigFeature. Well Done!

I do have one quick question that I'm hoping someone might be able to help me with.

I'm trying to modifying the [bfthumbs] tag on my frontpage to make it use a different tag instead of the h1 tag it's using now for the titles of the recent post. I'd like to have it use the h2 or h3 tag, but I'm not sure where I might look to change it.

I know with the slider you can customize it but I'm not sure if this is possible with [bfthumbs]?

Is there commands like these for the slider - [bfslider name="slides" type="page" height="320"] That are available for the bfthumbs?

Thanks a bunch,
Tim

it is using h2. The parameters for bfthumbs are:
```
'category' => 'all',
'tags' => 'all',
'numposts' => '3',
'sidebar' => 'false',
```
You can get posts by specifying a category or tags (nothing will fetch the recent posts). numposts sets max number of posts to show, and sidebar makes it possible to display the thumbnail posts in a page with sidebar, or in a post.

If you manually want to change the heading tag you can do so in theme-functions.php (search for bfthumbs).

Above your mention that [bfthumb] is using the h2 parameter. On my site this is not the case. I have h2 set to 18pt, however [bfthumb] is displaying at 24pt. What is the reason for the discrepancy? Does Cufon affect this?

Thank you for all the wonderful support.

I have changed the thumb heading to 20px in the new version, it was maybe too large. anyway, even though it's H2 changing the H2 style is not always enough, you have to check Firebug what is styling this this specific tag. To style the thumb heading use this style:

.post.thumb a.thumb-link { font-size:18px; }
