   Hello,

   So i need to list 3 authors from category "blogeri" by date of latest posts with author's avatar and title of respective latest post that should be linked to the story.

   Below is compiled code that I have found here that do everything I need except the post title part. This snippet shows number of total posts of an author. What I need is to show latest post title of the respective author.

   <ul>
   <?php
   //List of users sorted descending by date of lastest post written by user
   $uc=array();
   $blogusers = get_users_of_blog();
   if ($blogusers) {
     foreach ($blogusers as $bloguser) {
       $user = new WP_User( $bloguser->user_id );
       if ( !empty( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) && ( in_array('blogeri',$user->roles) ) ){
       $userpost = get_posts('showposts=1&author='.$bloguser->user_id);
       $uc[$bloguser->user_id] = '';
       if ($userpost) {
         $uc[$bloguser->user_id]=$userpost[0]->post_date;
   	}
   }
     }
     arsort($uc);
     $i = 0;
     foreach ($uc as $key => $value) {
       $user = get_userdata($key);
       $post_count = get_usernumposts($user->ID);
       if ($post_count && $i < 3) {
         $author_posts_url = get_author_posts_url($key);
         echo '<p class="classul">' . get_avatar($user->ID, 46). '<a href="' . $author_posts_url . '">' . $user->user_firstname . ' ' . $user->user_lastname . '</a> (' . $post_count . ')</p>';
       }
     $i++;
   }
   }
   ?>
   </ul>

   Solved by mixing yet another code from Michael. You can see results here
   

   <ul>
   <?php
   //List of users sorted descending by date of lastest post written by user
   $uc=array();
   $blogusers = get_users_of_blog();
   if ($blogusers) {
     foreach ($blogusers as $bloguser) {
       $user = new WP_User( $bloguser->user_id );
       if ( !empty( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) && ( in_array('blogeri',$user->roles) ) ){
       $userpost = get_posts('showposts=1&author='.$bloguser->user_id);
       $uc[$bloguser->user_id] = '';
       if ($userpost) {
         $uc[$bloguser->user_id]=$userpost[0]->post_date;
   	}
   }
     }
     arsort($uc);
     $i = 0;
     foreach ($uc as $key => $value) {
       $user = get_userdata($key);
       $post_count = get_usernumposts($user->ID);
       if ($post_count && $i < 3) {
         $author_posts_url = get_author_posts_url($key);
   
   //preparing query for titles
   	  $args=array(
         'author' => $user->ID,
         'post_type' => 'post',
         'post_status' => 'publish',
         'posts_per_page' => 1,
         'caller_get_posts'=> 1
       );
       $my_query = null;
       $my_query = new WP_Query($args);
       if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
         //echo 'List of Posts for ' . user->user_firstname . ' ' . $user->user_lastname;
         while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
          <?
   	    echo '<p class="classul"><div style="float:left; margin-right:5px">' . get_avatar($user->ID, 46). '</div><a href="' . $author_posts_url . '"><b>Autor:</b> ' . $user->user_firstname . ' ' . $user->user_lastname . '</a><br>'; ?>
          <b><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></b><br><br></p>
           <?php
         endwhile;
       }
     wp_reset_query();
       }
     $i++;
   }
   }
   ?>
   </ul>
