 * Hello
 * I want to create a template that uses thumbnails for featured images as link 
   to the blog post. The featured image shall be displayed fullsize in the posting.
   How do I access the thumbnail for the image? If I have to create them in the 
   template, I can write a function that looks if a thumbnail is there and if not,
   create it else just return the url to display it. What do I use in wordpress 
   to create a thumbnail?
