Hello, I wonder if it is possible that my forum has several mini forums and within subforums. I have him as is the current design Would that be possible?

And how would add my own icons for each forum and subforum?

You can add sub-forums to a sub-forum to as great a depth as you wish, so it is easy to create any number of "mini-forums".

I am not sure if I understand the next part of your question. If you want your own icons beside your sub-forums "Noticias", "Debates", "Sugerencias", etc, then you have to edit the NAML code that creates your forum. I believe that the macro you would need to edit is "topics_column", but I am not expert enough to tell you haw to do that.

If you mean to replace default folder pics for subcategories with your own pics then you go to subcategories_column macro & edit the line:
<td class="[n.column_default_border/]" style="width:1em"> 
                 <n.if.current_node.is_app > 
                     <then><img src="[link to image]" width="??" height="??"/></then> 
                     <else><img src="/images/thread.png" width="25" height="23"/></else>
and/or in pin_column macro:
 <n.if.is_app>
<then>              <n.if.is_pinned_in_loop> 
                                 <then><img src="[link to image]" width="??" height="??" title="[t]Pinned sub-forum[/t]" alt="[t]Pinned sub-forum[/t]"/></then> 
                                 <else><img src="[link to image]" width="??" height="??" title="[t]Floating sub-forum[/t]" alt="[t]Floating sub-forum[/t]"/></else> 
                             </n.if.is_pinned_in_loop>

To edit a NAML macro:

1. Click the "Edit this page" link at the bottom right of any forum page
2. Click on the cog wheel button and select "Search macros" from the menu.
3. After selecting the appropriate option, enter the search term and click the "Search" button.

This is not straight forward stuff. You need to understand the code to make these kinds of changes.
