I would like to create a links module that will allow users to quickly jump to certain forums on my board. But I want it to have the explorer type view (folder icons, cascadeing). See image.

Do mean a module that you'll manually edit the links (aka: a navigation module) or something that is generated automatically?

I would like to do the manual edit, because I don't want every forum listed.

Dude, your site has EXACTLY what I am looking for. Your module even has a divider for organizing link types, accept that id doens't list specific forums.

Below is my exact navigation module. Just change the links, etc. as needed. :D If you need help in changing them to point to specific forums just let me know and I'll be back around tonight.
