 * default theme = Twenty Eleven ?
 * start by creating a child theme to work with: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
 * how much different?
    – just the formatting or also the output ? , such as different
   thum
 * if the difference is just in the formatting:
    edit content.php in the child theme,
   and add some code in this line:
 *     ```
       <article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
       ```
   
 * for instance:
 *     ```
       <article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php $full_half = ($wp_query->current_post == 0) ? 'full-width' : 'half-width'; post_class($full_half); ?>>
       ```
   
 * this will give you an additional css class for the post which you could use to
   format any other than the first post as half wide.
