Widgetized themes often include support for adding a featured page or post, but often there’s no easy way to feature a category from your blog. With Featured Category Widget you can easily featured a blog category (or a category from a custom taxonomy, like products), add a custom image and optionally show the category description and a list of sub categories. Features: Add custom image and set display size. Optionally show category description and/or subcategories. Supports custom taxonomies. Developer friendly hooks and filters throughout.
