Basic templates

Hi there - first off, let me say "php novice" is euphemistic!  I am, however, trying to learn - I have invested in "Php For Dummies" and am slowly wading through.  At this point, though, I don't seem to have grasped the full logic of it and it's going to take time...

 

My immediate problem is that I'm needing to very urgently create an article submission form and then display the data in a very specific (and simple?) way.  I have a Joomla based website (http://www.classicromancerevival.com) and currently am testing the Mighty Resources components as a medium for site upgrade...

 

I have, using their templates, created the form no problem, i.e. I have the right fields.  What I need to do is amend the default template so that it has the standard layout of our book reviews (you can see an example of these - currently on the blog - at http://www.classicromancerevival.com/blog/?cat=http://www.classicromancerevival.com/blog/?cat=386

 

Looking at the template,  I can see it's in table form, but simply rows one below the other, whereas I need the upper section to include the cover image plus the defining data of the book, with the actual review below.  I also need the small butterfly image to automatically appear as a "fixture" on the form and the display article.

 

I'm just totally confused and can't seem to grasp the "how" of it, i.e. what to do to change the way it displays!  Probably really simple stuff, but I'm running out of time and need to learn this yesterday.  Please can someone point me in the right direction, what to unravel first?

 

Thank, and have a great day despite me....

Jude
