creating an image link is rather simple with HTML. Although exactly where to put it and how you have to do it isn't easy to figure out unless people see the template themselves.
If people here were to give you the code then we'd be doing the work for you, and not everybody is willing to do that. _________________

Meaning we will guide you in the right direction. If we just post the code, then we have people that simply copy and paste, then others just copy and paste, and nobody learns how to do it on their own.
And if other people copy and paste, and don't know what they are doing, they could crash their template without having any clue what they did. _________________

There are a few hundred templates installed, last I checked it was just over 160 of them and that was months ago.
I don't know each template.
Basically you need to know HTML, links and images are very basic HTML.
An image is created using this code:
Code:
<img src="location of the image" height="" width="" alt="" />
(the height, width and alt are all optional, though alt is recommended)
and a link is just:
Code:
<a href="location the link leads to">text that is clicked</a>
and it's easy to put them together, just replace the "text that is clicked" with the image tag.
If you want it properly aligned you'll need to learn HTML to get it right. There are a lot of HTML tutorials and guides. htmlgoodies.com has a quick little tutorial. _________________
