hey alex.. how did u get ur "Alex" above ur ava to be red?

With vBulletin, administrators can make "custom fields" in profiles, which can be used with the advanced template system. I created a custom field called "Username Color" and used it in the "postbit" template, which is the template for posts. However, I set it so that only administrators can change the field.

Code:

<normalfont color="$post[fieldX]">$post[username]</normalfont>

(where X is the field ID)

I suppose that I could allow users to pick a color, but I originally set up the system to distinguish users from moderators and administrators.

Check your User CP. You should now be able to change the color value. (Check under "Additional Information" on the "Edit Profile" page)
