    Most of the themes have a sidebar widget with recent/polular and random posts widget. Those widgets show post thumbnails too
    Please if anyone could share the code. Also, i’m trying to avoid timthumb so please provide a code which does not use timthumb

    [No bumping, thank you.]

    try this:

    <!--- Random Post -->
			<li id="randompost" class="widget-container">
            <h3 class="widget-title"><?php _e( 'A Random Post', 'twentyten' ); ?></h3>
             <ul>
             <?php
               $rand_posts = get_posts('numberposts=1&orderby=rand');
              foreach( $rand_posts as $post ) :
              ?>
             <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
            <?php endforeach; ?>
            </ul></li>
