</div>Yeah, I didn't think of that. I'll double check. The code doesn't<br>
specify a number, so I assumed that was all of them. Looking closely<br>
at it, I can see that it's doing a BB_Query without specifying a<br>
number, so it may only be displaying the first 15.<br>

</div>I can make it do anything at all, including lounge singing, but having<br>
three random themes show up in the featured list does strike me as<br>
rather strange. </blockquote><div><br>We were just thinking of having a random theme picked automagically for say 7 days...<br>but having it sing would be better ;)<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>Short answer: Use Stick To Front to make a theme featured.<br>
