Question

I’m having real difficulty pulling all atttachments including the image… The thing is, I need to be able to control how the content is displayed…

e.g.

<a href="(Path-to-full-image)" rel="customrel" class="aclasstodeine">
<img src="thethumbnailsize(defined in functions.php)" alt=""
class="aclasstodefine" />
</a>

REALLY hope someone can help

To get all attachment images you’ll need to do a query.

$args = array(
    'post_type'      => 'attachment',
    'post_parent'    => $post->ID,
    'post_status'    => 'inherit',
    'numberposts'    => -1
);

$images = get_posts($args);

This will load any image attached to the post into the $images variable then do a foreach loop on them to get your images:

<?php foreach ($images as $i) : ?>
    <a href="<?php wp_get_attachment_image_src($i->ID, 'full'); ?>" rel="customrel" class="aclasstodeine">
    <img src="<?php wp_get_attachment_image_src($i->ID, 'thumbnail'); ?>" alt="" class="aclasstodefine" />
    </a>
<?php endforeach; ?>
