Hello,

In the screenshot attached below, you can see how the there is an image, title and teaser. How would I do that using Views module if the post/node does not have an image attached to it? I would like Views to pull the image from elsewhere and be able to tell Views which image goes where.

Only local images are allowed.

Is this possible?

Thank you!

Check out panels module.

Why not just use CCK and ImageCache? You'll need to store a reference to the nodes image location somewhere.

Otherwise, you could create a variety of regions in your theme and manually place HTML [in blocks] there to generate your previews, but this would be quite cumbersome if the information was to change regularly.

Thank you for all the replies.

Sorry I meant block not blog in my very first post.

@latte: How would I generate a block like that from panels?

@Devin: You're right html is going to be hell as I have to update daily. How can I ensure that Views will pull 3 different images/one I specify when generating the view?
