Thread: Cannot Get Category Icons Placed (Yes, I Have Followed The Tutorial)

Cannot Get Category Icons Placed (Yes, I Have Followed The Tutorial)

Can someone give me some idea as to how to make this work? The code may be out of date for Version: 3.0.5.4. I know that there is at least one other out of date tutorial (last section of the Child Theme Tutorial Part 2 - I wasted hours on that). I have no problem adding the mod code to add the spacing for the icon and while not related, per instructions posted elsewhere on the forum, I have successfully modded the 'Featured Listings' carousel (and, no, I couldn't get icons before that either). I have experimented placing the icon code line in just about everywhere imaginable in my child theme and in the main .css. The icon that I am trying to place is on-line and the address is good but I get no icons no matter what. This isn't really that important but not being able to do it is driving me nuts! These things are on the main demo page. They should be reasonable to implement!

I admit that I have done everything but scream (and I have done that in private) on this forum looking for a solution but I cannot get any replies at all over several days time. As these icons are on the demo page for crimanny , it seems fair to ask the question here to in case there is any input to be had.

Here is the code that I am using (per the tutorial):

.cat-item-3 {
background:url("http://www.vintageradio.com/73/wp-content/themes/classipress/images/icons/Headphones24.png") no-repeat scroll left center transparent;
}

The image is good, the category number is for 'Accessories'. I have tried other category numbers for other categories with no results as well.

The involved webpage is http://www.73.BIZ not that there is a lot to see in this regard except for the 24px spacing that is awaiting icons that don't appear.

Thanks for any help!
