   The site: http://www.agapefest.com (sidebar on left, "behind the scenes")

   So I've set up, basically, and asides feed in the left sidebar. Pretty standard, uses the_excerpt from a specific category (that cat is hidden in the main loop). And I've attempted to include a thumbnail from each post with the_excerpt. Code:
   

   <?php $postlist = get_posts('category=105&numberposts=1');
   				foreach ($postlist as $post) :?>
   				<?php
                   $thumb = get_post_meta($post->ID, "thumb", true);
                   if ($thumb != "")
                   { ?>
                   <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>">
                   <img src="<?php $values = get_post_custom_values("thumb"); echo $values[0]; ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" class="thumb" />
                   </a>
                   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
                   <?php } else { ?>
                   <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
                   <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
                   <?php } ?>
   				<?php endforeach; ?>

   The thumbnail doesn't show up. When you view source on the page you'll see that the src path doesn't generate for the thumb.

   Any ideas? I copied then modified that snippet from here: http://www.widecastmarketing.com/thumbnail-for-your-wordpress-2.5-posts.html

   Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

   Can we assume you're using the full URL for the thumb Custom Field Value?
