   Hello WordPress forum!

   I'm currently in the process of coding a blog at http://www.projectlightstyle.com/

   I have a custom designed blog post that I have some problems with styling.. So I hope someone here can help me..

   First of all, here's a picture of how the design looks:

   As you can see here.. I want to be able to have a big picture for every blog post, and then a small description of the post below the picture..

   The problem I have, if you go to http://www.projectlightstyle.com/
   First of all.. The text from my blog posts are hiding under the picture for some reason..

   I want 2-3 lines of text to be shown underneath the picture, and then when you enter the post you get to see all of the text..

   How can I do this?

   Here's my code for posting:
   Index.php
   style.css

   Please tell me if I am not clear enough in my description of the problem!

   Are you assigning a "Featured Image" (i.e. Post Thumbnail) to each post?

   If so, you can accomplish what you want by outputting a combination of the_post_thumbnail() and the_excerpt() on the index page, and then outputting the_content() on the single blog post page.
