Question Displaying Sub Cateogry Descriptions and Icons

I'm tyring to get this page:
https://juhlir.tempdomainname.com/store/home.php?cat=249

to look like this layout:
https://juhlir.tempdomainname.com/mockups/quadrel_products_landing.jpg

Right now I have the sub cats set to display in columns - which is not really correct. I really want them in a list format with icons and descriptions.

Can someone point me in the right direction? (4.2.2)

Thanks!!

Default Re: Displaying Sub Cateogry Descriptions and Icons

In General Settings/Appearance Options turn off "Display subcategories list in multiple columns". You may also need to edit the template to show category descriptions

Thanks, I've unchecked the multicolumn format - what template should we edit?

skin1/customer/main/subcategories_list.tpl is the template showing cats/subcats as a list.
Learn the Webmaster mode. It tells you what's where

Red face Re: Displaying Sub Cateogry Descriptions and Icons

Thank you! I've been staring at the code and am not quite sure what to do - not being a PHP programmer, lol! I do see code that refers to the icon and description. Can anyone help me out with what code replaces what in order to achieve this effect:
