Well, the easiest way would be to get the headlines theme and use the ready-made code ;)
But if all you want to display is the article and its article image, then no, you won’t need most of the stuff posted in this thread. What the original poster wanted to do was to mix different content types, and check if there exists more than one instance of each type.
In this case, it looks like you only need an article or article_custom tag inside the <ul class="slides">...</ul>.

Hehe, that’s just my idea of using ‘meaningful’ variable names: more than one ;)
