not an easy task, I will recommend create a module for doing this otherwise you will need to modify system files of prestashop and you will hook yourself with old version of Prestashop. Its not the complete answer for your question but it may at least point you to the right direction.

here is simple tutorial how to make module

http://doc.prestashop.com/display/PS16/Creating+a+first+module

and more specific one for the backend

http://doc.prestashop.com/display/PS16/Creating+a+Dashboard+Module

basically use modules to extend any functionality in prestashop to keep it easy to maintain

you may also find necessary to hook your module into prestashop Hooks so you will need to read about them as well

http://doc.prestashop.com/display/PS16/Managing+Hooks

Another approach less portable is to override categories here is tutorial how to do it in Ps 1.6 http://nemops.com/prestashop-categories-second-image/
