    I am trying to add a span class the first level of navigation, but can’t seem to get it to work. 

    <li class="about"><a href="#"><span>About</span></a>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">sub1</a></li>
<li><a href="#">sub1</a></li>
<li><a href="#">sub1</a></li>
</ul>

    I can add the before and after code and but <span> there, but its reflected on the second level as well.

    Here’s what i currently have

    <?php wp_nav_menu(
array('theme_location' => 'main-menu',
'container_id' => 'smoothmenu1',
'container_class' => 'ddsmoothmenu',
'link_before' => '<span>',
'link_after' => '</span>'
));
?>

    Any ideas?

    Why – when you can apply CSS to the link text and then remove that styling via the ul ul or .submenu rules?

    I have an image for the menu on the first layer and text on the second layer.

    If you’re trying to apply unique images to each top level menu item, check out the individual menu-item (or page-item) ids that are generated by wp_nav_menu (or by it’s default callback, wp_page_menu) in your source markup.
