Suscription badges ?

[Swiss_Tony]

I was hoping that someone might be able to point me in the right direction on how to implement badges that are linked to those people who have paid for subscriptions on our forum.
For instance I would like to add to our members who sign up for an 'Authorised Trader' account a small badge next to their names so all other members can see their status and it gives a little something else to the member who signed up.

Something is done similar on another forum I am a member of
Here is an example :



Now I dont think this is covered by an award system as it is only linked to PAID for subscriptions but I may be wrong.

Thanks in advance
