Hey, If i make a membergroup called "GFX Artist" how do i add that so the forum knows that that membergroup is forum staff.
There are several ways.
You could give them the same color stars of Global Moderators, Moderators or even add your own custom badge is your forum is using custom badges.
Another popular way I've seen forums do it is have one group called Forum Staff with stars or badges, and edit the members custom title to GFX Artist.
Those are the simplest, or you could install a team/staff page mod that displays all members and groups that are forum staff.

Oh i was trying to get it onto the portal which automatically displays the staff
The only reason the GFX artist is showing up is becuase they are also moderating a board, but if they dont moderate they dont show up
