I am thinking of changing my toplinks to a preset image pack. However, I want to know if this is possible without too much work. I don't really like the look of the standard set.

Can anyone recommend a place to get good buttons that would fit this area?

Also, in the mean time, I am trying to find out how to space the image next to the toplink. For instance, the OEM ones are nicely spaced, but when I add one, the image is right up against the text for the link and I can't get it to space properly.

I have coppermine installed and bridged, but need to be able to have access to it via a toplink and each time I try, I can't get the formatting correct. It has since been removed, but take a look at the toplinks.

Any help is appreciated.

I was able to put some buttons up for testing purposes. My issue is the spacing between the buttons still. I can't figure out what I need to do to edit the spacing between the buttons. Can someone take a look and tell me what I need to edit to make them closer together?

The top links (grey buttons).
Hello i dont understand why you wanted to have image buttons in this era of css3 advent.
But i can help you with spacing issues,
check the css of your's pertaining to the menu.

Here is the css codes that need to be changed in your global.css :

#panel ul.menu li {
margin: 0;
display: inline;
}

#panel ul.menu li a {
padding-left: 0;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: left center;
}

This should help you with spacing issues, but i suggest you to use the css buttons which is better.
Here is a tut for it :

You can use the codes into your menu.

That is what I tried before asking. When I do that, it doesn't just effect the toplinks. It also effects the standard User CP icon, mod/admin icons as well just below the welcome bar. The buttons will look good after making that edit, but the icons for the above mentioned will overlap the text.

If there is a better way to create the links besides the default theme links, I would be more than happy to give it a shot. I just figured using buttons would give more of a graphical display. Not sure how CSS3 would differ?

I am open to suggestions, if you have any, please advise!
