Shopping Cart button on main page

How would i get a shopping cart button on the main page with the number of items showing? I see this done on a number of big ecom sites like futureshop.ca and bestbuy.ca.

Hey Rebel,

You've got to install the cart sidebox mod (in the downloads area) and then customize a bit to include your view cart and checkout buttons if desired. It's not very complicated, let me know if you need further instructions.

Awesome...thanks! I have it up in the header area where i want it now but i want to add a gif to the left of it (a little shopping cart graphic) and possible make it clickable to go into the cart to see the items. Any suggestions?
