Misty Dorman - Heartbeat Team I do not see how this is complete, I cannot seem to get any banners to show up as group images so the thread or group is clear to the members.

Jock: there may be some confusion in the mix of "groups" vs "threads". There's currently no ability to set a group image, but the description does show up when you $tag it as I showed below. You can do a thread header as a pinned post though, like this example where you'd have an image & then put your thread channel's description either on the image itself or in the text of the pinned post.
Are you wanting for groups themselves to be able to have an image associated with them, so it will show up on the "My Groups" page?

Thread headers are now formatting correctly. Group description shows up on the "manage groups" page and also if you tag the group using $join, the description will show on that post.

Here's an example of what I've been doing for thread titles, but I would love to see an image banner option. There are definitely some various image display issues happening both in mobile & desktop (as I mentioned in my other comment here). The display also gets messed up if there are multiple pinned posts.

I just got Heartbeat last night & as I was testing it out, one of the first things I did was add a post to each thread with an image & pinned it to act as a banner. I noticed a lot of weird things happening with the images that's making this somewhat unusable as an option. When I pin it, the post shows with 2 images on desktop. I think that fixes if I make another post. If I were to pin another post though, that puts the posts side-by-side, which breaks it looking like a banner. The images are also resized on mobile & not just shrunk down, but much of the image is cut off.

This would allow for personalisation and so better engagement within the Channel. Additionally if URLs were allowed it could support the Website of the Group/Channel by directly linking to their Home page.
