Choose RPG Character when Posting

[Ross]

Individual Board Footer
What this code does is lets you choose an alternative name and avatar to use when posting a message. I'd strongly recommend only using it on one or two boards

<script type="text/javascript">

Edit these lines:
avatar[0] = 'Avatar Url 1';
avatar[1] = 'Avatar Url 2';
where the green number insreases by one each time.

Ross, is there a way to make this option only available to some users? ..like for a main mod account, so they can be multiple NPCs?

Thank you
