Modify Layout of Manufacturers Page

I want to modify the layout of the Manufacturers page. The default layout is an unordered list of just the manufacturer names. The relevant default code inside /common_files/modules/Manufacturers/customer_manufacturers_list.tpl is...

Code:

 

  <ul class="manufacturers-list list-item">

    {foreach from=$manufacturers item=v}

      <li><a href="manufacturers.php?manufacturerid={$v.manufacturerid|amp}">{$v.manufacturer|escape}</a></li>

    {/foreach}

  </ul>

I stole some code from the customer_manufacturer_products.tpl file in order to get the manufacturer logos to show. Code now looks like this...

Code:

 

  <ul class="manufacturers-list list-item">

    {foreach from=$manufacturers item=v}

      <li>

      <a href="manufacturers.php?manufacturerid={$v.manufacturerid|amp}">

      <img src="{if $v.image_url ne ''}{$v.image_url|amp}{else}{$xcart_web_dir}/image.php?id={$v.manufacturerid}&amp;type=M{/if}" alt="{$v.manufacturer|escape}"{if $v.image_x} width="{$v.image_x}"{/if}{if $v.image_y} height="{$v.image_y}"{/if} />

      {$v.manufacturer|escape}

      </a>

      </li>

    {/foreach}

  </ul>

What I REALLY want is to have these logos + text links for each manufacturer to be in a table format (rows and columns) so you don't have to scroll down so far to see them all. I would be willing to hardcode the number of columns fi the rows were dependant on the number of manufacturers defined.

Can anyone help with this formatting? Please.
