I see, then your best bet is to just leave the text header as-is and add a background image attribute to the #header selector.
change:
#header {
clear: both;
margin-top: 16px;
}
to:
#header {
clear: both;
margin-top: 16px;
background: url(http://www.url.com/path/to/image.png) no-repeat right center;
}
…obviously replacing the URL to the image with one of your own.
Actually I want to keep the text there as well. Sorry I am really being unclear today. Must because I am tired.
Been reading wordpress stuff and messing with my site since 5am. I know there is not much content there but want to get it visually and feature wise laid out before putting up more content.
If you go to “Theme Options” and select “Display a custom image/logo image in place of title header” you can upload an image or paste the URL to one from your media library.
Below that, you can set your logo width and logo height. You should resize the image prior to uploading so it doesn’t look choppy. The size is up to you – depending on the orientation of your logo graphic.
To align it to the right, you’ll need to edit the style.css.
Find:
#header .inner {
padding-top: 15px;
padding-bottom: 20px;
}
and change to:
#header .inner {
padding-top: 15px;
padding-bottom: 20px;
float:right;
}
Glad you like the theme 
Next Question. I am in the process of creating a small graphical logo. I would like to know what would be the best size to make and also how to get it right aligned in the header.
BTW did I mention I really like this theme. Clean and all.
I understand it gets registered and it does show up. I added a text widget to that area. It doesn’t show up on the forum sidebar
Sorry if I was unclear.
I will try what you have posted and see if that fixes it.
I just did what you said and its working fine.
I’m interested… I tend to underestimate my abilities and sell my self short. But my post toolbar has been a big confidence boost.

You should be able to add any widget to the ‘Forum Sidebar’ location.
If bbPress is installed, this widget location gets registered:

If it isn’t showing up, make sure it isn’t commented out in the forum templates you want it to show in. I only enabled it in the templates I felt were necessary (like the member pages).
On some of my forum pages I wanted a wide page, but you can certainly change it.
For example, to change the forum home page template, open archive-forum.php in the theme editor and just uncomment this line:
// get_sidebar('bbpress');
Then, in functions.php find this line:
// force wide on bbPress pages
if (is_bbpress()) {
$columns = 'sixteen';
}
and change ‘sixteen’ to ‘eleven’ to accommodate the sidebar.
I made a post toolbar, but its not wysiwyg or tinyMCE. Just buttons to add html and shortcode tags.

I installed this theme and its pretty nice. One question I have is I wanted to added a widget to the forum sidebar but it doesn’t show up. Any idea what I need to do to get it to show up?

1. Yes it is possible. Depending upon what you want to display, I would start by looking at the widget code for bbpress to see how they are pulling out the most recent topics and apply that to your theme home page.
2. Not by default but there will be changes on that in the future.
Definitely use the v2 plugin. It is very stable, and while there are not a lot of plugins available for it at the moment, there will be.
pimarts –
Which redirection plugin are you using?
Thanks
I can’t help you with your first question but you can’t use the 1.x plugins for 2.x, they work differently. Just search the WordPress plugin repository for bbpress to find the latest/newest plugins that work with bbpress 2.x
v2 file uploads > No.
v1 to v2 > Probably.
extra system requirements > I have no idea.
I don’t know, but what I’m doing now (as a workaround) is using the redirection plugin for WordPress to re-direct the bbpress profiles to the BuddyPress profiles. So I’m only using the BuddyPress profiles at the moment. Works great.
I really don’t have the time at the moment, otherwise I might have given it a go. I’ll try to keep responding to the questions that hit these forums though.
Did see a lot of updates in trac the other day, nice one. Is it useful if I test the latest version in trac on the beta version of my site, or should I just wait for the final version to drop?
What’s the timetable on this documentation thing by the way? Others might want to know too. When do you want to start it and when do you need it ready?
I want to deactivate the gavatar/profile picture option from my bbpress, can anyone help ?
I have download the correct .MO and .PO files for Portuguese Language, but I can’t figure out how to get it working!
Where should the files be uploaded to?
Any help?
Hello
Apologies if this information is on the forum, but I could not find it.
I need to add a forum to a WordPress 3.2.1 site in the next couple of weeks.
bbPress is a candidate.
What I cannot find out easily is:
* will v2 have file uploads without an additional plugin?
* will there be a simple upgrade path from v1 to v2?
* will there be extra system requirements to run v2 over v1 (as it is a plugin?)
Thanks
Hello, someone tell me how can I put an editor TinyMCE in the reply textarea for the forum??. And if I can use the plugins for 1.X version?
Thanks.
how do bbpress and WPMU get along?
Ok. I solved it by installing the Members plugin and creating a new role that only allowed “Publish topics” and “Publish replies”. That got rid of the “Add Topic” and “Add Reply” options in the horizontal Admin bar and solved the problems I had.
Also, as soon as I give the user any Page permission (reader, author, editor) he can see all the private forums in the Topic Attribute select box.
update: That problem might not be related so I appologize for posting it in this thread.
