Thank you for responding to this.
What I want to be able to do is set it so that they can be listed/added in any order the user wants. Like 1,2,3,4,5, or 4,1,3,2,5 and so on. This is going in the footer and there are only 2 hooks there that are of no use for something like this, so this is the way I have to do it for now. Since the copyright text is anchored right below the "time is now", that is a good area to be able to add things to. Does that make any sense? I'm not very good at explaining things at times.
