What you want requires basic knowledge of HTML and CSS.
The first step is to copy K2's sub-templates inside your template as outlined here: getk2.org/documentation/tutorials/174-templating-with-k2-and-the-concepts-of-sub-templates
Then you can modify the item view file (default/item.php) and position the image, text and extra fields within the html structure that you wish.

Hi All,
Thanks for your thread. My problem after reading the article is; when I copy the files over to templates there is no com_k2 in the HTML folder in any of the templates I have in my site.
I then created a folder named com_k2 and inserted the k2 templates files into it, but when I look at "select a template" option in categories there are no options to pick from except the default.
Do you have any suggestions as to what may be wrong here?
Regards,
Brian

Within /templates/YOURTEMPLATE/html/com_k2/ you can simply copy the "default" folder and name it whatever you want (e.g. "portfolio"). The new folder will be shown within the drop down lists. The "default" folder being inside your template allows you to override the default K2 output and of course create clones of it to adjust as you wish and assign to whichever categories you want, creating different styles if required for different categories within your site.
