Is there a hack that allows administrators to add a custom status/icon to a members title, independent of the number of posts or anything else? I have seen some that allow the users themselves to add a custom status / icon, but none that only allow the administrators to do so.

thank you,

Jimbos Custom status/Rank has does that, Only allows admins to add titles and using HTML you can add images too and stuff..

Thank you verry much

No prob. Glad to help.

will this script cause conflicts with the star hack?

Yes it will. You'll need to use the HTML example in the readme to add stars after the Titles.
