Small Template/Css question

[Neo_Angelo]

Hello, i'm hoping i can find some help regarding adding images above and below the forums.

now i have a code to seperate the forums and catagorys. i want to know what codes/css i need to use to add a set of images to in total form a funky bar across the top and bottom of each catagory table. since i can't really screen shot it because it'd take me a while in PS and i've got to go soon i'll quickly show you through here:

//__________________\\ <- images above general catagory
-------General Forum-------
forum 1 |last post|
forum 2 |last post|
_____________________
\\------------------------------// <- images under the footer part of the catagory.

Basicaaly i'll have 3 images a Left image a center image to be repeated and a right images to end it.

now my question is how do i compilate these images to form a bar as such across the top of my catagories.

any help would be very much appreciated, i'm not that brilliant with template modifing lol.

many thanks
