I've just upgraded from 3.4.4 to 3.4.5.1. I love the support for the new Wordpress 2.9 Post Thumbnail feature.

However, when I try to change the default post thumbail size from 150px to 100px (height and width) and change the CSS to apply a 1px border, 2 things happen: the size change does not save, and I lose my settings for Configure Excerpts. I had it set for only excerpts on all of the options, and I had a custom "continue reading" bit of code set up. That defaulted to the original.

I've tried this 3 times, and the same thing happens. Am I the only one?

The same happens for me...

OK, glad to know it's not just me and my set-up!

I should add that I was using Firefox 3.5.7 on a Mac when this was happening. Haven't tried it with another browser.

Same bug observed here. Currently using post thumbs with no border. Using IE ver(not sure) and FF 3.5.6 win xp.

Anyone know of a workaround?

Haven't played with the thumbnails yet, can someone post how they are adding and changing their thumbnails? Then I'll take a look

Create a new post. Add an image from your hard drive. After it's uploaded, you'll see Use as Thumbnail down next to Insert into post. Save changes and publish as usual.

If you then use the AT Options/Post thumbnails to try to change the dimensions, the dimension change doesn't save, and for me, the posts on the front page become full and not excerpts. And my custom "continue readings" defaults back to the [...]

Certainly, my fix is to put this into the Add HTML/CSS inserts:

#middle .attachment-post-thumbnail
{border: 1px solid #000;}

that fixes it for me, otherwise I am just adding the thumbnail from the options on the right hand side of the administrator screen when I'm adding a post. In fact I haven't made a new post since, just thumbs for existing posts. I'll find out tonight when I make a new post.
