Displaying an image left is just basic css, there is no need to make a custom template for that, make sure the order is title, image, content in the view. <div><br></div><div>#id_of_the_view img {</div><div> float:left;</div>
<div> margin-right:10px;</div><div>}</div><div><br></div><div>If you don't understand this code, it's a good idea to buy a book on css or to check out <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/css/">http://www.w3schools.com/css/.</a><br>
<br></div><div>I personally prefer imagefield above image_attach because fields are a lot more futureproof (and in Drupal 7 core) and because fields naturally have a very good integration with views. </div><div><br></div>
<div>To show only one the first image for the imagefield select the image settings in the view. Choose "group multiple values" and "show 1 value starting from 0" to show only the first image. </div><div>
<br></div><div>To show shorter version, just choose "trim this field to a maximum length" in the view, this is a lot more flexible and adjustable than teasers (which go up in steps of 200). Since this option in views, teasers have no more function I think. Use a text field instead of body and remove body.</div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">You could use image_attach (which comes with image module), but I don't recall if it allows align left (it aligns right by default). Check it out.<br>
<br>Otherwise:<br><br>1. Simply attach the image to the nodes of type "article".<br>
2. Theme the content type via node-article.tpl.php<br><br>Do some research with the devel module (tab: devel render) to see how you can find and print out and wrap in selectors and theme the image attached to the node. <br>
