  You cannot accomplish that without purchasing an annually renewable custom design upgrade http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/ and doing the required CSS editing. http://en.support.wordpress.com/editing-css/

  You can accomplish this if you remove the Categories widget and either a) use coding in a Text widget, or b) create image links in Links > Add New and add a Links widget.
