Featured Grid Loop

[media317]

Since 1.9 kills the old grid loop, I need help figuring out how to create a loop that includes the "featured" post function.  The loop that I am currently using is the "old" genesis_grid_loop.  The array lets you create a "features" which ill include all the copy/content while all the other post in the loop only show their excerpt.

I can create a custom loop using 'have_posts() -> the_posts()', but how do I designate the first post in the loop to display all of its content while all the others display the excerpt?

I tried this grid loop from Bill, but when I updated to 1.9.1, it broke also.  I had to revert back to 1.8.

Please Advise

Here is what i've been working on.

It works perfectly with Genesis 1.8, but not 1.9.x

What am I missing?

figured out the issue.  Since I added the loop directly into a page template, the first conditional elements were not necessary.  I removed them and the loop works fine.  I adjusted the styling via css and updated to 1.9.1.  Working fine now.
