Replacing category links with images

Can someone tell me how to replace my main category links with images. I do not want to do all categories with images, just my 5 parent ones.

Thanks so much.

Are you referring to the category headers? or to links that are within?

Posting a url to view what you have is helpful

Re: Replacing category links with images

If you are talking about the categories sidebox, the Categories Dressing mod will do that.

Re: Replacing category links with images

Yes, I am refering to the sidebox ones. For example, on the current page I would like to replace the "NFL Shop" text link with an image.

http://74.52.136.194/~onlinefa/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=2_7

I would also like to know how to do like the Arizona Cardinals one too, just in case I decide to make that an image as well.

Will the dressing mod do this for me?

Re: Replacing category links with images

Ok, call me dumb but there are no directions with Category Dressing and I cannot figure it out. How are you supposed to use this?

Re: Replacing category links with images

You didn't see the readme.txt file?
Open that in Notepad.

Did you unzip the download? (Use Winzip or 7zip, or whatever else you have for the purpose, and "extract".) If the readme is really not in it, who knows what else is missing... in that case I would say to download a new copy and unzip that.

Re: Replacing category links with images

Well that's seriously annoying! Somehow I left the readme out of the zip and included an irrelevant file. 7zip doesn't have a convenient way to check on more than ten of the items in the finished zip, so I didn't see that it wasn't there...
At any rate I'll see if I can attach the readme directly here; and I am close to releasing v1.2 which will have all the proper files.
