Seacoast,

Best way to acheive this is through the skin1.css file.

The categories are controlled by the CategoriesList item. Set a backgroung gif in this as per the following:

.CategoriesList {
FONT: 11px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
background-image: url(images/background.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

This will show one image in the background to the category item. Be careful that the image is small enough for the line height. If this is an issue set it as follows for a 20 pixel line height.

.CategoriesList {
FONT: 11px/20px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
background-image: url(images/background.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

Hope this helps.
