How to change the currency symbol to a flag on OC 1.5

In OpenCart 1.5, the currency selector at the top of the default template uses the currency symbol.

What if I accept US, Canadian, and Australian Dollars on my store? All of those currencies have the same symbol of $. It would be rather confusing for my customers.

I think it would be better if they could choose a flag (like for languages) instead of a currency symbol.

Does anybody know how I could change it so that a flag of that country shows up for the different currencies?

Thanks!

I have the same issue as the previous poster - is this possible please to change the $ sign to an image of a flag for instance?

I sell in US $, GB £ and Euros so I would like to change the symbols at the top of my page to a US Flag, Euro Flag, and British Flag.

thanks

I use both Australian Dollars (default currency) and US Dollars. The way I do it is to set the "Symbol Right" for Australian Dollars to "$", and for US Dollars to "US$". Don't know whether this causes any problems with PayPal (haven't had anything reported), so I can only assume that it doesn't.

Changing to a flag could cause misunderstanding amongst your customers who may think that it is a means of selecting a different language rather than a different currency.

Is anyone find how to replace the currency symbol with the country flag?
Please help me to fix this issue.

Thanks

Seems to be an answer, haven't tried it yet though.
