Hi Mlalande,
Try the following:-
Note that in the following code the images (jpg and swf files) are stored in your stores "image/categories/" directory (you can upload them to that folder via ftp) - the folder named "categories" we just added into directory "images" ourselves to store these in (you could call the folder any name).
The rest is simple html to change the width, height etc. (you could open the html file in notepad to view what to change these to for your own file perhaps.
