looking for a hack to allow mods and admins to change username color...

[michealo]

im not sure what you mean by that

i removed the folowing cause too many new members were just abusing the privlegde

-code above that i added to the postbit template
<font color="$post[fieldx]">$post[usertitle]</font>

-deleted the custom profile field for usertext color

-and reset the member.php and register.php back to original

perhaps i really should be going about all this a different way
thanks for all yer help and patience so far, i'd love to get this solved.
