If you check out the forums at http://www.hardware-one.com/forum/default.asp you will see that software has user icons. Anyone want to code a user icon hack fo vB that allows you to select avatar icons based on the amount of posts you have?
If you look at their icons, they have over 700 icons to choose from! Just replace the "1" in the following URL with a number from 1 to 700.

The trick is when you signup you are only give a choice of about 20 icons to choose from. As you post more, your choices expand, up to all 700 I suppose. This is very cool and you know users would go crazy for it. We know how much each forum software steals from others when it comes to images and I doubt these images are copyrighted as they contain many copyrighted pictures by Disney, Sesame Street, Marvel, etc.
