How to create mini-post like this

Hi,
I am working on a new blog but I don't like the theme at all. Too many things goes wrong with that theme so I would like to use an other one. The only reason I chosed that theme is because of the mini-post on the main index page. Here is how it look like: My blog
I did not find other theme with that feature. Would it be complicated to create that mini theme feature on any other template?

Thanks!

It sounds like it's all based off of a feed and it just pulls the information it requires from that feed. If this is true, there should be many other themes that can support the feature.

Where is your current template from?

Are you talking about the RSS import or the way the posts are small and tight where the text wraps around the image?

I guess I don't understand the qestion.

Hi,
I am talking about the way the posts are small and tight. It look a little like how items are displayed in a store. I think this will do well for my review site.

BTW, the theme is call Zinmag Remedy

Thanks

You can do the same thing on a standard web page if you structure the CSS correctly.
