This is similar to the tip about adding a custom icon to Premium Member badges . For this tip, we'll show you how to display a custom icon next to all Member Titles. Note that the same icon will be displayed for all titles in the example, since there is currently no way to differentiate member titles from a CSS standpoint.

Depending upon your site's design you may want to change the new default avatar display so that all initials appear the same color. With a bit of CSS you can do that.
