Mini-Profile Custom Group Name Image

[Cupcake]

Hello all!

I've been searching for a way to be able to incorporate images, such as a text image that I've created for a group name via photoshop or gimp, to be able to replace the Group Name altogether. 

What I mean by this is, say you are the Administrator, instead of your mini-profile saying 'Administrator' in plain text below your name, it would show the graphic I made for the Administration group. 

Now I know this was done via coding on previous proboards versions, and other platforms, but I just can't seem to figure out where I add these individual group images I've created to get the effect. Not to mention, coding and I go together like...well, oil and water.

If someone could please give me the 'Coding your mini-profile for Dummies' version on how this is done, I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks a Bunch in Advance,

This would be achieved via layout templates rather than header and footers if you'd like to post in that request board instead =)

Just so you know, though, it can also be achieved by a very simple step. When you go to admin > members > member groups
in the Name field, put [img]IMG URL[/img] with the image url you want to show up. Then, if you don't want any stars or anything to it, put 0 stars. Then it will only show the graphic you want for that group, nothing else.

Oh! Thank you!

I remember before it was a code put in the footer I believe, so I wasn't sure, but I'll definitely try the suggestion you just gave and if it doesn't do what I'm hoping it will, I'll repost in the appropriate board.

Thanks a bunch!
