learn css and html. You can't be told in a single comment how to create a theme.

you accomplish that by how the_loop is written.
heres a link to the documentation:
http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop
How about you enlighten us as to what you have done to accomplish this besides looking at someone else site, and then we can work from there.

I didnt ask you to accomplish it - I asked what youve done so far.
youre saying that youve done NOTHING. fair enough.
have a great day.

Posted 2 years ago #Yes, I am saying that I've done nothing, because I do not know how it is accomplished, that is the entire purpose of asking. How can you tie a shoe if you don't know how? You can't. Same goes for featuring stories that way, if you don't know how to do it, how can you?
You too.

basically the loop retrieves the last 6 posts and generates them inside divs. CSS is then used to position those divs inside a parent div by using
float:left;and specifying the sizes of each div.It's not easy css to work out and it might be better to use a table instead

Posted 2 years ago #That's my point though, it's not the last six post, its 6 post from several portions of the website.

well it is the way the loop has been used. It is obviously extracting a post from specified catagories or containing certain tags.
I am no expert on the loop but it would be worth consulting the codex to find out various ways to use the loop.
