Graphic for menu item needed!

[flex22]

Hi guys n gals.I hope I'm posting in the correct forum, if not then just move the post of course

OK, I created a new menu item called "post of the week" which you can see here:
www.oghma.net/itforums
It's between the FAQ and the Member List menu items.

What I would like is to somehow make that more visual.This will be implemented on this site here: www.zaadz.com/community
(I'm just testing it on oghma first)

So as you can see the skin is still at the default, and will remain so.

The 'Post of the week' menu item is linked to the thread that contains the nominated post of the week post.

As this 'Post of the week' menu item will link to a different post each week, I want to be able to leave a little icon in every nominated 'post of the week' post, so that people browsing the forums will know that that post was nominated as a 'post of the week.'

How can I get an icon next to the 'post of the week' menu item? and how can I change the font to make it stand out, as in a nice bright colour or something and bolder too.

If anyone can give any advice that'd be great.

Thanks!
