You have a bunch of small, solvable issues here. You're headed in the right direction.
Regarding the small point size for the label: you can change that by wrapping it in a span tag and then adding the style for that span to you theme's stylesheet. Something like this:
[html]
<span class="field1label">My Label for this data:</span>{merge_tag}
Then in your stylesheet, add something like this:
[css]
body span.field1label {
font-size: 16px;
}
That would make the label you hand typed appear in a span inside your post, and would be 16px font size. That would take care of the size of the hand typed label. If you wanted all the labels to look the same, you could use the same class for all, like <span class="fieldlabel"> and then your CSS rule would be
[css]
body span.fieldlabel {
font-size: 16px;
color: red;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
Does that much make sense?
Adding a link is just adding the HTML to make the text a link. I'm not sure what text you are link to which URL, so it's hard to guess at how you want this to work.
Everything I want to include in the form should be in the post body, right? I'll keep listing things in the post body content template using the merge? The merged items come from the custom fields?
Regarding this: everything you capture in the form does not automatically go into the post. You have to put it into the content template if you want it to be included in the post. You WILL keep listing things in the content template and using the merge tags to get the submitted values. The merged items will only come from custom fields if you used the custom field field type in the form builder.
Regarding the image placement, you will probably have to add a CSS class to the image to make it float right or left and have the text appear in the correct location.
You might also want to "Disable auto-formatting" below the post content template, so no extra markup is added like paragraphs or line breaks. You will have to add them in yourself, but at least they won't appear where you are not expecting them.
Work on this some more then post a link to your post and maybe a screenshot or the actual text of your content template and we'll take another look.
