I’m planning on launching a bbPress forum sometime in the months ahead, but want to add a few important features.

1) I’d like to add ‘avatars’ beside each forum, just like vbulletin and other forum setups let you do. Is this possible?

2) I’d like to tie-in ‘recent comments’, ‘new threads’, etc. lists in a widget on my blog. Something that updates in real time as posts are made… Just a way to funnel more folks from the blog into the forums… is this doable as well?

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

The first one is not avatars (those are for people) – you want topic icons, like gerikg linked you to.
