Hello Thomas, Thanks for the input. I am currently going in the direction of tweaking the simplenavigation using css. However I think I will try the custom tag thingy, as it sounds more flexible to me.
Is there a tutorial or howto somewhere, briefly describing how to create a custom tag for magnolia?

Instead of using the image in the header, you can potentially use it anywhere else in the page (or modify the template to get additional fields, like menuImage, bottomImage, etc - see the templating tutorial for this). If you want to generate a whole menu, I think you should make your own version of the simplenavigation tag. You don't have to change the source, make your own custom tag instead (tricky if you don't know how to make custom tags, but doable). When iterating through the root pages (the 1. level nodes), collect the image property as you go along, and smack it into the menu.
