Ok so most users probably know this but for those of you that don't.

Step 1:Design your "star"(can be any kind of image actually).
Step 2:Save your image as a .gif
Step 3:Go to your cPanel
Step 4:Open your FTP Program
Step 5:Go to the theme folder, select your theme, and select images folder.
Step 6:Upload your image to the folder.
Step 7:Go to your forum ACP and select membergroups.
Step 8:Make a new group or click modify on one.
Step 9:Under star image filename put the name of your image in the box.

C0ngrats you have a custom "star"

I don't think this is a tip nor a trick, but more of common sense?

Oloty

I didn't know if everyone knew it so I decided to post it. Its actually more easy to do this rather than making a mod. I mean if you want different color stars then upload one picture of many different color stars.

How would you make a MOD of it?  Put an uploader on that page?

Oloty

There was a mod for ranks that had it to where you could set different color stars.

I did this and uploaded to both Default and my custom theme images files and when i put in the file name in the new member group i don't see the image just a *

Ps the file name was leaf.gif

Was leaf.gif in the right place (Themes/default/images/leaf.gif) ?
