Alison, have you upgraded your theme to 1.7 or not yet? any problems?
Hesham @ FamousBloggers´s last blog ..I Lost Twitter Id field after upgrading to Thesis 1.7, what to do?
I have not upgraded my own — plan to do that this evening. But I’ve upgraded some client sites.
The only problem I had was in renaming the folder. Once I get the upload, I always work around to name the current theme folder “thesis” — rather than “thesis_17,” etc. This keeps the paths for images, etc., intact.
But when I do this, the display in the Appeance>Themes shows text that says 1.7 is installed, but shows the 1.6 image. Not a problem as far usability, but could confuse people.
I’ve reported the issue.
Hesham, I have now uploaded both Win with 1 and Pix2Brix. No problems at all. Even the backend glitch seems to have been resolved.
Hi Alison, Good for you on uploading the upgrade on your sites. Please keep me posted about the real impact on your blogging success. Thanks

Thanks, Ileane. To date the real impact has been that it makes SEO easy, it makes customization easy, it makes upgrading easy — so I can focus on blogging instead of administration issues.
Love Thesis!
