Vb Help!

[Zuth]

Hello there,
I work on a Vb forum and we would like to know how to make the user name sparkle, like mattg's and roxy's. Anyone know how?

So yeah, someone helped me figure out how to get like a little 'sparkle' thingy on the usernames in vBulletin. Just something simple.

Here's how:

1) Go into your adminCP >User groups > Edit the usergroup you want.

2) In the first Username HTML Markup box put:

<span style="background: url(images/backround9.gif)"> 

then whatever else you want...

3) Then in the second Username HTML Markup box put: </span> and close off w.e else you have.

4) Save that.

5) Then upload this image: to your images folder & keep it the same name.

Enjoy x

@Dave surely this only works in firefox etc? not IE?

Nope - I do believe the background-image attribute on spans is cross browser these days!

Do you know how i can change the colour of the sparkle?

You'd need to edit the image.
