Each forum icon is from a specific location, how is that possible to have a different one for each forum?

OK, add the following line to where you would usually put the forum name.

Code:
<a><img src="http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/images/forumicon/1.gif" align="left"></a>
Add the forum name to the description box, along with what other info you wish to display.

Save it & check it out...Now apply your info there. Enjoy !

They used the second option I posted here, the images are named according to the forumID of the forum they need to show for

OK, I just showed an easy way to achive the goal they were after without editing code.

Also, in the discription box, to add rows of text, add <br> after each line.

If you place it in the description it wll be below the forum name, not next to it.

You would also need to re-create all the styling for the text to make the description smaller to achieve that look...

Either way you are still editing code.
