Mod Author/OP

[Digital Jedi]

Has anyone ever suggested adding a little graphic or icon to the postbit to show when a person posting in a thread is the Mod Author or the OP? Just thought it would be something nice to have. Something like:

Good idea. :up:

And also co-author or co-supporter?

I was thinking author only to distinguish and make it more obvious when it's the author posting in the thread. Co-Author/Supporter might make it confusing, as sometimes a supporter is just someone who's donated or a lot of people could have contributed to a project and then everyone has got an image. Not to mention it'd be a bit more complex to do.

Interesting idea, where in the postbit would you suggest (remember we use both legacy and normal here).

My first inclination is to say to the bottom left, right across from the editor buttons on postbit, and that same area, maybe beside the Report Post button on postbit_legacy.

Great Ide.
I sigest put it only for author in the same place where the installed button is now.

This would be very useful! I have gone up to the first post many times, to check who was the author, when following a mod thread.

Pretty good idea, since a mod page has 100 replies, having an image to show who's the Author will help.

We would need an image more consistant with the current "Installed" image.
