Agradar vs Agradecer

These both mean "to thank". Are there major differences here? Te agradezco. Te agrado. Do these mean the same thing? Thanks? Thanks.

That's wierd. The Spanishdict dictionary lists agradar as "To thank". I bet that is an error in the site.

Yeah, it must be. I don't think agradar is used very much. - CalvoViejo, Mar 18, 2010
Indeed, you found an error! Notice that the entry for "agradar" goes on to define it mostly in terms of "to please", and it makes no further mention of "thanks". - Gekkosan, Mar 18, 2010

They are pretty closely related, but they don't mean the same thing.
Agradar is to please
Agradecer is to thank.
