Show Category Image with Link in Magento

On my Magento homepage, I'd like to include a link to a few categories, along with their respective Category images. Obviously, I could manually link to the images, but it seems like it would only make sense there is a way to automatically pull the Category image along with the link. Help?

  1. load the category you will like to display the url and images of and then use "getImageUrl ($category)" to get the image of that category.

If you're using Magento 1.4+, I'm pretty sure you can do through a widget if your homepage is edited through a CMS page.
