How do I create forum image links?

[Ultimate Killer]

Hello everyone.

I would like to have an image link where it has the forum text link, how would I do this?

I would also like to have the forums grouped under the category instead of one forum listed at a time in a row going down the page. So if I had ten forums I would want them to have 5 image links across on two rows instead of ten forums in a list format.

Also, how do I add background image to the forum and to the images to the background of the forum and the tables.?

Thanks
