Can't modify output of headers using content template.

Issue Summary

I am trying to rearrange the output of blog entries using content templates in Drupal 6.

I don't seem to be able to modify the output for the title, the submitted by person, date, and taxonomy. I can add those fields in before or after the body (or teaser), but then they are simply duplicates of what it outputted at beginning of node.

I am confused because I was able in drupal 5 to have an image associated with a node output first, before the title or content body of that node. That does not seem possible in drupal 6. I am not sure what I am missing, but I am failing to see how I have total control of how the node is outputted.

my site is: http://earthblog.org/

I simply need to put the taxonomy after the body, and put the read more right after the body content and maybe some other modifications. I imagine I can muck around with the style sheet and hide certain parts, but I would rather just get the info I require on the page in the order I require it.

thanks
