Adds a [post_thumbnail] shortcode for use with wordpress post thumbnails. Size can also be set using [post_thumbnail size=”XXXX”]. (You can call the function directly in your theme with <?php post_thumbnail('size=thumbnail');?>.)

Just insert the shortcode into any post’s content and when it will be replaced with the featured image.

This works only with the featured images introduced in WordPress 2.9.
