If you don't know what is related posts with thumbnail, you can see under Full Blog Tricks posts. There are some posts title with thumbnail (reduced-size versions of pictures). The function of related posts is to increase our blog pageviews. Interested? Just follow the steps below.

1. Log in to your blogger account.
2. Go to Design --> Edit HTML

4. Copy the code below, and paste above </head>

<!--Related Posts with thumbnails Scripts and Styles Start-->
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<style type="text/css">
#related-posts {
float:center;
text-transform:none;
height:100%;
min-height:100%;
padding-top:5px;
padding-left:5px;
}

#related-posts h2{
font-size: 1.6em;
font-weight: bold;

font-family: Georgia, &#8220;Times New Roman&#8221;, Times, serif;
margin-bottom: 0.75em;

#related-posts a{
color:#FFFFCC;
}
#related-posts a:hover{
color:#000000;
}

#related-posts a:hover {

}
</style>
<script src='http://blogergadgets.googlecode.com/files/relatedthumbs21.js' type='text/javascript'/>
</b:if>
<!--Related Posts with thumbnails Scripts and Styles End-->

<div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'>
But, if you didn't find that code, try to find the code below
<p class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'>
6. After that copy the code below, and paste under one of the code above

</b:if>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<script expr:src='&quot;/feeds/posts/default/-/&quot; + data:label.name + &quot;?alt=json-in-script&amp;callback=related_results_labels_thumbs&amp;max-results=6&quot;' type='text/javascript'/></b:if></b:loop>
<script type='text/javascript'>
var currentposturl=&quot;<data:post.url/>&quot;;
var maxresults=5;
var relatedpoststitle="Related Posts";
removeRelatedDuplicates_thumbs();
printRelatedLabels_thumbs();
</script>
</div><div style='clear:both'/>
