Custom (graphic) user titles?
 
I'm pretty sure it's possible. But I don't know how to do it exactly.

1. Is it possible to make custom graphic user titles?
For example, the common user titles used on this forum are 'coder/designer' 'member' 'advisor' 'administrator' etc. I want these to be graphical buttons instead of just plain text. Getting what I mean?

2. How to do it?
3. What should be the appropriate size for these images/buttons?

See examples of what I mean in this screenshot. But this is a mybb forum.
Example: http://prnt.sc/dcx0uj

Yes, you can do that with the "User Ranks" feature of vB. You can use images, or HTML to create badges for your usergroups. :)

Awesome. I'm gonna have to get the badges made. Can you recommend an appropriate image size, that isn't too small or too big?

I would stick to a maximum width of 180 px if you are using the legacy postbit. At MHB, I designed HTML badges with a width of around 165 px and a height of 19px, 1 px border, and 5px margin top and bottom:

Can you design cool animated badges? Or recommend someone who can do it?
Like these: http://www.cpaelites.com/Thread-New-...Dog-New-Tricks

If yes, please let me know the price per badge. :)

Those are .gif files. Unfortunately, I don't do that kind of graphic design, nor do I know anyone that does. :(

There are animations that can be done with CSS as well, but I haven't explored that much.

Tip: you can find cheap design services at fiverr.com.

Thanks a lot. You pointed me in the right direction and now I know I want to look for. Thanks! :)
