    I've had users try. Then it says they fail to get a correct username. Is there a way I can add a code or something else?

    Hi,

    To add an icon before username you can use this

    Code:
    /* Kruna ispred nicka administratora. By BubbleDreams 2011 -
    AdminCentar.net . Nemoj uklanjati copyright! Don't remove copyright! */

    $(function() {
    if($('a[href="/u1"] span strong')){
                $('a[href="/u1"] span strong').before('<img src="http://cdn2.iconfinder.com/data/icons/ledicons/crown.png" border="0" />');
        }
    });

    Add it to your AP > Modules > JS managment and mark all pages.

    The u1 in the code represents user number one, the founder, the first one registered. Change the u1 to add it who ever you want.

    You get the users number by clicking on his name on the index and taking it from the browser.

    You can change the image in the code.

    Those other signs can be used in the nickname.
