Images as quick links to forums

[Spangle]

I wanted to put show some images to act as quick links to forums, to save users scrolling down, I also wanted to show American guests in a friendly way that we are a soccer forum, we Brits hate that word and use football, which can cause confusion.

There is a MOD that does something similar, but it was far too complicated for such a simple exercise.
What I did was create a one row table to display the images, within the Navbar template.

You can see the result here : http//www.talkoftheterrace.net

Here is how to do it :

ACP>Style Manager>Your Style>Edit Template>Navbar & Breadcrumbs>Navbar

Find :
{vb:rawphrase advanced_search}</a></li>
{vb:raw template_hook.navbar_advanced_search}
</ul>
</div>
</vb:if>
</div>

Add below :
<table>

<tr>
<td align="center"><p><a href="http://www.talkoftheterrace.net/forumdisplay.php?104-English-Premier-League"?><img src="images/navicons/epl.png"> </a></p></td>

All you need do is replace those parts in red with the links to your forums, and your images.
My images are 48 x 48 px, I still think they look a little big, resize yours to whatever you want.

Hope this works for you

I've had a look at your front page, and I see the problem !!
Try placing it below this :

<div id="breadcrumb" class="breadcrumb">

Save and refresh
