To my knowledge there is no option for this by default, nor a mod for this, as colors are defined per membergroup.  I dont see how it could be done without setting up a seperate membergroup with the same settings and permissions as the prior one just for THAT member.

At least, not without a code modification.  Maybe someone who knows more than I can look into this further?

Perhaps as a framework, you could take the output in BoardIndex.template.php for the who's online box and add an if-then statement to check the member against a known value, to output that text in that color.

This is a modification that is beyond the scope of my knowledge at this point, however.
