Need help with Custom Profile Field in Postbit - not working

[ExplosiveGFX]

I have a single line selection box profile field, with 2 options.

"Edit my photos"
"Don't edit my photos"

So, I'm trying to get this to display in the postbit, with a little color on each, to make it stand out, you know?

I'm following Steve's info in this post on vb.com

Here is my code:

<if condition="$post['field8'] & 1">
<font color="green">Feel free to edit my photos!</font>
</if>
<if condition="$post['field8'] & 2">
<font color="red">Please do <strong>NOT</strong> edit my photos!</font>
</if>

Nothing is showing up in my postbit.. it's below "$post['posts']" in postbit_legacy, what am I doing wrong?

Any help will be appreciated, thanks.
