Further, the controller is configured to display, on the display, a plurality of icons including a first icon and a second icon, wherein the first icon comprises a first default image identifying the first input and the second icon comprises a second default image identifying the second input, change the first default image to a first image based on the first image signal received from the first external device in response to the first icon being selected if the first external device is connected to the image display device, and change the first image back to the first default image in response to the second icon being selected. In addition, the first image is displayed at a position corresponding to an area where the first icon is displayed, and the controller is further configured to change the second default image to the second image based on the second image signal received from the second external device in response to the second icon being selected if the second external device is connected to the image display device.
