Images instead of board description?

i'm interested in knowing if anyone has a bit of code/an addon/etc for boards that will replace the read/unread icon and the board description with an image of our choice. It's meant to be a role-playing board so we'd like to have previews of the "areas" that they can post in so that the players have an idea of what to go for. It should be available for main boards and sub boards ideally. I've tried looking around but it doesn't seem something like this is currently out there? Admittedly, the read/unread folders could be there and we can do it with BBC but I can't seem to get that to work either?

Example of what we'd like:

If it is fine to keep the board name, you could start with something like:
Code: [Select]
#board_1 .board_name:after {
    background-image: url(http://turtlebackzoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/wolf1.jpg);
    display: block;
    width: 100%;
    height: 150px;
    content: "";
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
Then you can add all the bells and whistles you want. ;)
