   So I found that I didn't have to enable the thumbnail code in the functions.php, that WordPress already buried the command in a subfolder. However, I would like to make some changes to the thumbnails that appears on the main page. I assume I am looking for something like <?php if(function_exists('has_post_thumbnail') && has_post_thumbnail()) but I can't find it in the loop, single loop, or attachment php files. WHERE is it?

   make some changes to the thumbnails that appears on the main page.

   by default, Twenty Ten does not have thumbnails on the main page.

   can you post a link to your site to illustrate what you mean?

   Have you checked page.php or single.php ?

   I am running this locally, for now.

   I have checked page & single...could have missed it, though.

   It's just not there. The only code I found like it is in the header.php file.

   Can you not do a string search on something like "has_post_thumbnail", of the whole project and trace it back to its roots?

   there is simply no thumbnail image output in the index page or archive pages of an unedited Twenty Ten - full stop.

   I would like to make some changes to the thumbnails that appears on the main page.

   please post a link to your site to illustrate what you have right now.

   are you working wth an unedited Twenty Ten theme?

   if you want to add a post thumbnail to the main index posts, you need to edit loop.php and add the code there;
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_post_thumbnail
   for instance in this section:

   <div class="entry-content">
   				<?php the_content( __( 'Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>', 'twentyten' ) ); ?>
   				<?php wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="page-link">' . __( 'Pages:', 'twentyten' ), 'after' => '</div>' ) ); ?>
   			</div><!-- .entry-content -->

   (the one nearest to the end of the file)

   Thanks for everyone's help. The main problem is that I am getting confused between 2010's "featured image", which is really their new word for "thumbnail." I know the difference, but I'm getting confused anyway as I try to think this through.

   In any event, I am going to abandon this programming thought and post a new request for help, as I've found another way to accomplish what I want to.
