View Full Version : Army Ranks for Postbit
Alright, I dont know how many people actually want something like this for their forums but here it is.
Basically its a rank graphic that can be placed into your users postbit. I recomend postbit_legacy for this, simply because it looks better
In addition to the normal ranks, there is a seperate zip file containing a couple extras I have created. For example if you want to have a "training" rank inbetween enlisted and officer, then there is a cadet rank in the extras file.
Also, with the rank files I included 3 warrant officer graphics, when these were made we were using the warrant officer ranks to signify moderators (junior WO being a new moderator in training, WO as a full moderator, and CWO as the head moderator)
I am more than willing to do any modifications to the graphics. Also in the extras folder there is a second version of the general ranks in a different color, as well as a couple with an extra line of text for adding positions and such

oh they look very nice! Awesome work
it would be great then :)
Yes I have them installed on a 3.6.4 version of vbulletin. if you would like to see what they look like in the post bit www.unitedbadboys.org/forums
Its a website I made for a counter-strike clan. The graphics were altered a little bit to show an abreviation instead of E-1, E-2, etc.

Gee, I wonder where you got the inspiration for these?

Can we say Slight ripoff.
I obviously must admit that I have seen your ranks before, and have seen them before making these. I gathered ideas from multiple places, most of them were my own, the only thing in that graphic that came from you is the striped border on the left side that I placed stars on.
So maybe it did give me a little inspiration, A couple years ago a site I was an admin on was making rank graphics and was looking for ideas, one person brought up your site and we looked at them (among other sites) and tried to gather together some ideas, at the time we made something that was VERY similar to yours. At that point I made a couple that were very close to yours before I completely started over from scratch and made these ones, the only thing I took from the original graphics that my friend made was that striped section on the left side.
If I was attempting to ripoff your ranks they would look better than that. But if you want to go nuts over a 15x90px image of nothing but alternating lines then have fun

Can we get a simple explination on adding this to the posbit legacy template please?
You do not have to do any template or style editing to get these to work, so those of you who are dreading coding this out into the post bit, not to worry, Vbulletin has a built in tool that does the exact same thing without any painful coding.
It is essentially just a usergroup with a graphic assigned to it. Very easy, if anyone wants to see the overall look of the graphics after they are installed you can visit the unitedbadboys.org forums and take a gander around.
As for setting this up, I am more than happy to atempt to come up with instructions with screenshots and everything, but if you want to save the confusion I am more than happy to install it for you, all I would need is access to the admin panel (but that of course is if you trust me enough to go into your admin panel). I can say that it is not that dificult, its just a little tedious.
