Hey,
I noticed a few people around the 'net wanted a modification like this, It wasn't too hard so i thought i would give it ago.
You can specify a image path/url to use for your catagory icon, if none is specified, the forum will use vBulletins default image.
See bottom of post for screenshots

That should be it.
To set catagory icons, just edit a forum, the image field is at the bottom.
If you have any problems, just ask.
