Question: I've built a new Page-Template in Magento. On this template I will show the Category-Image and after that, the product grid (as standard). How can I get the Category-Image for my Template?

From my Template:

```
<div class="col-main grid4-3 grid-col2-main in-col2">
    <?php echo $this->getChildHtml('global_messages') ?>
    <div class="worlds-image"">Category Image</div>
    <?php echo $this->getChildHtml('content') ?>
</div>

```

Answer: 
If you want to get the thumbnail image of the current category that you are browsing, then use the following code:

```
<?php $categoryImage = Mage::getModel('catalog/layer')->getCurrentCategory()->getThumbnail(); //Get the file name of the Image stored for the category ?>

<img src="<?php echo Mage::getBaseUrl('media').'catalog/category/'.$categoryImage  ?>" />

```
Great, and 

```
<?php $categoryImage = Mage::getModel('catalog/layer')->getCurrentCategory()->getImage(); //Get the file name of the Image stored for the category ?>
                    <img src="<?php echo Mage::getBaseUrl('media').'catalog/category/'.$categoryImage  ?>" />

```

..is for the category Image. Thanks for your help, It's not easy for a newbie to make "easy things" in magento .
