  1. Open Twenty Eleven content.php

    Find this code:

    <article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
    <header class="entry-header">

    Change it to:

    <article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
<?php the_post_thumbnail();?>/*Will enable post thumbnails*/
<header class="entry-header">

    You are done…

  2. You can try the following:

    • set a suitable thumbnail size:
      http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_image_size

    • add to content.php, for instance before or you can add it in the body before the content, whatever works for you

    • adapt the style.css to allow the header and post meta data to wrap round the image, some ideas you can use

      .home .attachment-post-thumbnail { float: left; margin-right: 4%; margin-top: 15px; }
      .home h1.entry-title { clear: none; }
      .home .entry-meta { clear: none; }
      .home .entry-content { clear: both; }

    Hope that helps!
