after <data:olderPageTitle/>
for older posts on the right and before <data:newerPageTitle/>
for newer posts on the left. If you are swapping the position of the
links (tutorial below) so that the link for newer posts appears on the
right and the link for older posts appears on the left, then add add <img src="DIRECT IMAGE URL"/>
