how to add external links with tumbnails. - xekuter50 - 2013-10-02
The current theme im using has no links with pics by default so i wanna add facebook, twitter, google+ etc with pics at the header.
and other external links at the footer. this will be about 3 columns.

You could add something like this in your header template. Go to ACP>Template & Styles>Templates>YOUR THEME>Header Templates>header
<a href="LINK TO PAGE"><img src="PATH TO IMAGE"></a>
You are using a custom theme, I wouldn't recommend adding the social networks anywhere near the logo. I don't know any good place to add except for the footer, however if you wish to add it above your logo then add the code with your details above the following code in your header template.
<div class="logo"><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a></div>

ok thanks i will try this out.
remind me how to make them open up in a new tab instead of open up on the curent tab and overwrite my site. also there is a small gap between each image. i dont want any space between the images.

Change:
<a href="LINK TO PAGE"><a target="_blank" href="LINK TO PAGE">As for spaces, make sure there aren't spaces between img/a tags in your code and that images don't have transparent surrounding.
