Hi Aaron
What you want is possible.
In the code I posted above, look for:
Then within each of the two TD tags, you will see:
Code:
{$categories[cat_num].category}
Change this (in both cases) to be:
Code:
[img]/CatIcons/{$categories[cat_num].category}.gif[/img]
Then create icons with exactly the same names as your categories, in a folder called CatIcons in the root directory. You can of course choose to use a Smarty variable to give the directory, and this would be best practice, but i use the directory above to illustrate.
You can also change what the images are called, so you could use categoryid or order_by or similar by changing the code above and the image name.
You can even tweak the code to have different images for whether a category is active or not.
cheers
