Change member Group and Rank stars VERY EASY!

[?e?a Morte]

Ok this is how to get a badge on your mini profile e.g admin, gold, mod...NO PLUGIN OR EDITING 
here's how: 1. Go themes> Theme Manager> Hover over your theme and click "Images" > Scroll down till you see " Group & Rank Stars" Click Upload and upload the Image you want. Now go to Themes> Theme Manager> Click your theme> go to Groups & Ranks Tab, Usually by default there will be a star but click the drop down menu and whatever you called your badge when you uploaded it, it will appear in the drop down menu, select it.

Important: Please make sure the number is at 1 or you'll have lots of copies

Pretty helpful tip for those that don't know about it, but when I hear "forum badge" I think of the sort of badge that's showing in my mini-profile to the left.

Yeah It's usually called that on other forums, but thank you

It is? I always call it a membergroup icon, I never have heard it called a badge

I thought it was called badges because:

On ProBoards, badges are indeed like the cookie, snowball, etc., I have in my mini-profile.  In order to avoid confusion you may want to change your post subject line to say "membergroup icon" or "Change member Group and Rank stars" or something along those lines. Just a suggestion. Your post, I'm sure will be helpful to many and they'll figure out what you mean, either way (badges or group & rank icon), once they see the instructions.

Now, I made a new group called HELPER added one guy to it, I made the group have that icon, I can't see it for some reason? Why? should i download it and then upload it?

Thanks

A image needs to end with a png, gif or jpeg file extension. So yes, you need to download it to your computer however, that image has a trademark (TM) next to it so you may want to find a image that isn't a trademark of a company and not copyrighted.

Many thanks - for some reason I seemed to be struggling with this.
