adding buttons instead of text

On my site i have links at the tope something like this:

<li><a class="category-top" href="http://blossomshopkinsfloral.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=14">Wedding Decorations</a> </li>

i want to add buttons instead of text, where is that located..

also i want ot change the main inside white, (index page) to a different color, where is that locatred in the stylesheets....thanks:shocking:

<li><a class="category-top" href="http://blossomshopkinsfloral.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=14">Wedding Decorations</a> </li>

For buttons instead of text i would try something like this:

<li><a class="category-top" href="http://blossomshopkinsfloral.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=14"><img src="PATH TO BUTTON" width="BUTTON HEIGHT" height="BUTTON WIDTH" alt="Wedding Decorations" title="Wedding Decorations"></a> </li>

To amend the main page background go to stylesheet.css (includes/templates/YOUR_OVERIDE_FILE/css)

look for:

#mainWrapper {
background-color: #ffffff;

and change it to the colour you want

i understand the red changes, but what i need to know, is where is the file i need to change[edit], i am using the default files...
thanks

I believe you are using the categories tab option for these links so the file controling it is / templates / tpl_modules_categories_tabs.php

what i nned to do is find the php that has this data:

<li><a class="category-top" href="http://blossomshopkinsfloral.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=14"><img src="PATH TO BUTTON" width="BUTTON HEIGHT" height="BUTTON WIDTH" alt="Wedding Decorations" title="Wedding Decorations"></a> </li>

when i do to that file all i see is:

I believe the links are created dynamically by this piece of code:

<li><?php echo $links_list[$i];?></li>

not sure if its the right way but to get your links as buttons i would overwrite this

with

<li><href="LINK1"><img src="YOU SPECIFY"></a><href="LINK2"><img src="YOU SPECIFY"></a></li>

etc etc

thanks, what is pat to that code, is it store/includes/lang/english/classic/
