 * I was hoping to use the ACF plugin to get this behavior.
 * I would like to set 1 or more images for each post category and then when the
   user is creating a new post and they select the category(s), the associated images
   are displayed, allowing the user to select one… sort of like a featured image,
   but a little easier for the user as the images have been predefined for each 
   category.
 * I created a custom post type “Category Image”, which allows the user to upload
   a image against a category and then was using Advanced Custom Fields to pull 
   in the custom post type… close, but it needs to dynamically filtered by category,
   and I would also like to show a thumbnail or preview of the image.
