Suppose you have multiple languages and want to let people choose them by clicking flags, instead of with the selector.
Place this HTML in your template (presumably the wrapper) where you want it, perhaps in the spot currently occupied by the language selector:
<a href="index.php?action=setlanguage&returnto={CURRENTURLENCODED}&languagegroup=yourlanguagename"><img src="flagimageforthislanguage" alt="this language" /></a>
<a href="index.php?action=setlanguage&returnto={CURRENTURLENCODED}&languagegroup=yourlanguagename"><img src="flagimageforthislanguage" alt="this language" /></a>
<a href="index.php?action=setlanguage&returnto={CURRENTURLENCODED}&languagegroup=yourlanguagename"><img src="flagimageforthislanguage" alt="this language" /></a>
Change yourlanguagename to the name of the language and flagimageforthislanguage to the image url for each one, and copy as many times as needed for the number of languages you have.
