Hi Guys!
I'm not sure on how to explain this one. The only thing i can do is to show you an example of what i mean lol and try my best to explain it lol.

Basically what i am looking to do is to add a lifestyle image above all of the different categories so that it looks like this...
http://www.illuminet.../furniture.html
Each section is going to have a different Lifestyle Image as well. Because all the information is being pulled from a database, i dont have a physical page to edit.
I know this is little information to go on, but i just cant explain it, hopefully you understand it.

If you're using a shopping cart system does it have a facility to add images to categories?

Unfortunatly i cant see. I've looked through the whole admin panel and cant see anything for adding it. Is there any other way that i could do this?
I'm really badly stuck on this, usually i can figure it out, but this has me stumped.

What cart system are you using? If there's no such feature you're probably going to need some custom coding.

as i said in im tyler, 2 ways to do this with php
1) insert another row into the db table which has the link to the image you want to display
2) have a if else statement,
you insert as many if else's as you need

echo "<img src="xx1.png">";
}

Yes, "if" statements will work, a bit long winded but it seems you have no choice. If they want to add a new section/category it will mean manually editing the PHP.
I'm surprised ECT doesn't support category images, most carts do, many even support multiple category images.
