the patch is huge and shouldn't be applied as is without extensive 
testing. i have had a look but struggled with time issues for properly 
testing it. maybe users can decide with their votes on ideas.nagios.org 
how much popular demand is there?

Jochen created the multiurl patch which allows to add more than one url 
and also to change the icons then.

http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Patches/Nagios-Core/MultiURL-Patch/details

or you'll use quick and dirty config hack for icon_image adding some pnp 
url to that. sort of that, being s.gif a not visible picture and 
Stats2.png your preferred graph icon then.

icon_image s.gif' width='0' height='0' border='0'></a><a 
href='/pnp4nagios/graph?host=$HOSTNAME$&srv=$SERVICEDESC$' class='tips' 
rel='/pnp4nagios/popup?host=$HOSTNAME$&srv=$SERVICEDESC$'><img 
width='20' height='20' src='/icinga/images/logos/Stats2.png' border='0
