   the css to style the way you want. Easy peasy iselaespana.

 * you could use `the_post_thumbnail()` (aka featured image) on the left and `the_excerpt()`
   on the right;

   [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt)
 * in loop.php – ideally in a child theme of Twenty Ten [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
 * what details do you need to know?
 * (btw: the layout of your sample site is totally broken in IE7 – an old but still
   widely used browser)

 * Thanks Alchymth!!
 * as far as the excerpt would that include the post title aligning with the post
   thumbnail? What would I need to place in css as the name for the items? .the_post_thumbnail?

 * right! this refers to the ‘like shown here’ site 😉

   > thumbnail?
 * no

 * these changes need to be made in the loop.php template – not in the css.

   new css has to be added into style.css.
 * ——–
 * example for a new structure with post thumbnail and excerpt:
    [http://pastebin.com/MeaZHjfZ](http://pastebin.com/MeaZHjfZ)
 * – this replaces the section in loop.php from line 127 to 171:
 *     ```
       <?php /* How to display all other posts. */ ?>
   
       	<?php else : ?>
       ...
       ...
       	<?php endif; // This was the if statement that broke the loop into three parts based on categories. ?>
       ```
   
 * example css for that structure:
    [http://pastebin.com/qUJjr3b0](http://pastebin.com/qUJjr3b0)
 * could be added at the end of style.css of the child theme.
