Option to select own avatar with each post

It will be good to have a few avatars or uploaded pictures available for selection when a user posts or replies instead of a "one size fits all" feature. This is useful if I post in a private group where I don't mind my real picture to be shown whereas in other more general forums, I would use a more appropriate avatar.

Thanks for the suggestion but we do not plan to let users choose avatar separately for each of their message.

Thanks Sam for your reply. You could have your reasons for not making this a standard feature but I have my own strong reasons to want to have this feature when I buy and implement this software. Is there a way I can engage you or someone else to write a mod for me?

On a separate note, can I display a different color scheme for each category or forum board a user clicks on? It would be interesting to have, say blue for MEN's category and pink for WOMEN's category. In this way, a regular user is instinctively aware of the category he or she is in and I think this is not a redundancy.

Having multiple avatars would bog down a heavily used board and there's no need.

Why don't you just have multiple user accounts each with a separate avatar? One can be "Admin" another "Companyname", and yet another "Chris" or some anonymous user so nobody knows who you are.
