Char Avatars - like go-gaia.com

I've looked around on this forum and do some searches but have only found static avatar topics. What I would like is a script to have a system where the users of my forum can have their own char and collect items on the forum or from a store.

The script is already made for phpBB but I have no interest in using it and that's why I am here.

I've collected some links for a developer so that they can have a place to start if they are willing to write/translate a script for PunBB!

This is a mod that is almost complete:
