Dual avatars for subscribers?

[dssart]

I've been thinking of ways to give small perks to subscribers of my forum. I would like to have a separate group of avatars, like little wreaths or gold stars with text like FORUM SUPPORTER which can be selected by the subscriber and will display directly below their current avatar. Anyway to do this?

You could try setting something up with this via the rank system...

This would work just fine...well, except for the user selectable part. Just make up some small images ("badges") in Photoshop or whatever and store them on the server. Then set up the ranks for the usergroups you want to have them via AdminCP > User Ranks > Add New User Rank with the path to the image (or you could use HTML and text without an image).

Thanks for the replies guys, actually I was kind of hoping to get the user selectability in there. Does anyone know if a hack is available that would allow a certain usergroup (i.e. subscribers) to select a rank and therefore an image?

You could probably set it up with creative use of Public Usergroups and the Rank system combined...

Sent you an email with a small, and very simple code hack that I use.
