 * I have added some featured images to my ideas, but I don’t see them appear anywhere.
   
   I haven’t found any option to enable showing featured images.
 * How can I force the featured image to appear next to the idea?

 * Hi,
 * Featured image depends on how your theme handles it actually.
 * For instance twentytwelve adds the featured image above the title when the idea
   is displayed in its single view.
 * If you wish to replace the user’s avatar with the featured image, then you can
   use this gist:

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for looking into this and providing me with a code example to replace 
   the avatar with the featured image.
    It’s not what I was hoping to do. Probably
   my theme doesn’t support the featured image like twentytwelve does.
 * If I can’t have the featured image in the idea post, it might have been nice 
   to see them in the widget ‘IdeaStream Popular Ideas’. The widget ‘IdeaStream 
   Tops’ shows the user’s avatar, but the popular ideas stream doesn’t show anything.
 * Any suggestion on how to accomplish this?
 * Regards,
    Patrick

 * If a member can upload images it will be better for sure… Than many of as can
   use the plugin to make members to post on home-page like a blog…
