# Page thumbnails

 * Hi All
 * Wondering if someone could help. Basically, I’m trying to create a homepage which
   pulls in the thumbnail graphics from the latest blog post and various pages.
 * I’ve enabled thumbnail support and have the latest blog thumbnail appearing OK.
   But I can’t seem to get the page thumbnails to appear. It always shows as the
   blog thumbnail! Not sure what I’m doing wrong.
 * Here’s a demo:
    [http://guiltypleasures.dollypower.com/test](http://guiltypleasures.dollypower.com/test)
 * Here’s the code I’m using
 *     ```
       <?php $temp_query = $wp_query; ?>
           <?php query_posts('showposts=1'); ?>
           <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
           <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
           <?php endwhile; ?>
       ```
   
 * `<?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail($page->about, 'thumbnail'); ?>`

 * Will try to do a bit more investigating. If I figure it out, I’ll be sure to 
   share the details on here. 🙂

 * Got it! Sharing it, as others may find it useful.
 * For the latest blog post:
 *     ```
       <?php query_posts('showposts=1'); ?>
           <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
           <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
           <?php endwhile; ?>
       ```
   
 * For a thumbnail from a particular page (in this case id =7 ):
 *     ```
       <?php query_posts('page_id=7'); ?>
           <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
           <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
           <?php endwhile; ?>
       ```
