These are two challeges that i have been trying overcome. I have received excellent help from Lynne, but no sooner did I make one step forward I ran in to another road block. I will try to provide as much info as possibble, As always i truly appreciate any help you can provide.
Problem one
My Forum appear to one continuous forum, there are not spaces between the catagoies. i would like to somehow add space, separator or redesign if neccesary.
It currently looks like this
I would like my forum to look more like the VB.org Forum index like this

Im not sure how to over come this, i have tried creating a variety of different forums on a test forum but still cant figure it out.
Problem 2
After Lynne helped me to figure out to how identify a template, identify the code with in a template and edit. I can now add an image to to a specific forum. However I cannot figure out how to align the image and the text next to each other horizontally level.
The code I'm using is
Code:
<div align="center"><if condition="$forumid == 35">
<img src="http://www.spearfishingplanet.com/sfpbannerads/topicads/spucclub.jpg"width="299" height="64""ALIGN=RIGHT" "valign=center"> <else />
</if></div>
Depend on how i modify placement of the code I end up with these results
Or
I hope I have provided enough information, and that someone will understand my goals.
