Hiding an Image in a block?

Ok so lets say for a min that I wanted to hide a button in a block.

So I take the universal forums block I add in my code

Code:

$content = "<A HREF="http://www.stcloudscoots.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=posting&mode=newtopic&f=2\"><IMG SRC="/images/post.gif\" ALT="New Post\"></A><BR>";

to show the button. This button allows people just to post a message in a general forum. But now I have a modified Universal Forum block called Better Universal Forum block. This one shows messages only to people who have permission to that particular forum.

So I have a General Forum and now I have a hidden forum called Paid Members. Only paid members can see this one.

So my question is how would I make an image (button) only visible to the paid members of the site?

This is what I have at the moment. It allows the block to show but not the button.

Code:

if (in_array(4,5,8,9, $groupids)) {
$content = "<A HREF=\"http://www.stcloudscoots.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=posting&mode=newtopic&f=4\"><IMG SRC=\"/images/paidpost.gif\" ALT=\"Paid Members New Post\"></A><BR>";
}

Ok I am this far along

Code:

$content = "<center><A HREF=\"http://www.stcloudscoots.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=posting&mode=newtopic&f=2\"><IMG SRC=\"/images/post.gif\" ALT=\"New Post\"></A></center>";

But when the button there shows my other ones disappear.

Use the .= to put together two strings

$content .= ...

Code:

if (!in_array(4, $groupids)) {
if (!in_array(5, $groupids)) {
if (!in_array(8, $groupids)) {
if (!in_array(9, $groupids)) {
$content .= "<A HREF=\"http://www.stcloudscoots.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=posting&mode=newtopic&f=4\"><IMG SRC=\"/images/paidpost.gif\" ALT=\"Paid Members New Post\"></A><BR>";
} } } }

Ok adding the . in before the = worked. But the only thing is that it is not hiding. Anyone can still see the button. How can I get this (at this point STUPID) thing to hide.

I have only been playing with this thing forever.
