I currently run a a membership based site using Yahoo Groups. I was wondering if BBPress does the same things that Yahoo Groups does and also has the below capabilities:

1: Customization. I’d like to be able to customize the look and feel of the emails as if it were a newsletter. I can design the layout, colors, logo, etc.

2: Ads: Additionally, I’d like to be able to upload ads to the emails on a monthly basis or switch out the template with new ads on a monthly basis.

Thank you in advance for your help!
