Help with If Statement populating several Cells

Column A lists how many links should be created... a number from 1 through 4.
Columns B, C, D, and E correspond to those 4 photo links.

How do I set up a formula such that, if...

A2 = 1, then B2 will create a hyperlink
A2 = 2, then B2, and C2 will create a hyperlink
A2 = 3, then B2, C2, and D2 will create a hyperlink
A2 = 4, then B2, C2, D2, and E2 will create a hyperlink

I do know how to create a hyperlink in a cell, so I don't need help with that.
In which cell would I put in the formula? F2?
I was thinking that a vlookup would help, but it would populate B2, C2, D2, and E2 when populating those cells is conditional based on what A2 will show (either a 1, 2, 3, or 4).
