Images as quick links to forums vbb 4.2.1

[Admin]

I wanted to put show some images to act as quick links to forums, to save users scrolling down, I also wanted to show American guests in a friendly way that we are a soccer forum, we Brits hate that word and use football, which can cause confusion.

There is a MOD that does something similar, but it was far too complicated for such a simple exercise.
What I did was create a one row table to display the images, within the Navbar template.

You can see the result here : http//www.talkoftheterrace.net

Here is how to do it :

ACP>Style Manager>Your Style>Edit Template>Navbar & Breadcrumbs>Navbar

Find :

{vb:rawphrase advanced_search}</a></li>
{vb:raw template_hook.navbar_advanced_search}
</ul>
</div>
</vb:if>
</div>

Add below :

<table>

<tr>

All you need do is replace those parts in red with the links to your forums, and your images.
My images are 48 x 48 px, I still think they look a little big, resize yours to whatever you want.

Hope this works for you
