   NB: Please make a backup of your page template before trying this:

   This is something I use in my template to show my last 4 posts from the work category (displaying only an image that links to the posts) and have modified to show the last one post which I hope will also work for you:
   

   <?php
   //get posts from category named work
   	$categories_to_include = get_cat_ID('work');
   	$the_query = new WP_Query('cat='.$categories_to_include.'&showposts=1&orderby=post_date');
   	?>
   <?php while ($the_query->have_posts()) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
   <div class="postWrapper" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   <div class="post"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php $values = get_post_custom_values("thumbnail-name"); echo $values[0]; ?></a></div>
   <p class="postMeta"><?php edit_post_link(__('Edit'), ''); ?></p>
   </div></div>
   <?php endwhile; ?>

   change category from work to name of your category
   change thumbnail-name to your custom field name

   Hope that helps get you on right track...

   Hi !
   I think custom fields are complicated so I'm trying to show a different picture in every excerpt and I need to know what is the line code necessary to do it.

   I need to know how I can show a picture in every post with the picture named as post ID.

   I think it should be something like this:
   <?php echo '<img src="http://www.myserver.com/wp-content/images/postID.jpg" alt="my picture!!" />'; ?>

   I think $post->ID is the answer but I don't know what I slhould do.

   Thanks
