Chat Icons

[PaperMoney]

I was wondering if anyone knew how to exactly put icons in chat for group names, such as admin, superadmin, owner, etc. I got the icons, I just need to know how to add them into chat for certain groups.

I know that this is part of the code

  
        if ply:IsSuperAdmin() then
              
            icon = "icon16/shield_add.png"
              
        elseif ply:IsAdmin() then
              
            icon = "icon16/shield.png"
              
        elseif ply:IsUserGroup("owner") then
             
            icon = "icon16/shield_rainbow.png"
       
	   elseif ply:IsUserGroup("moderator") then
             
            icon = "icon16/shield_silver.png"
			
	    elseif ply:IsUserGroup("vip") then
             
            icon = "icon16/rosette_blue.png"
       
	   end
end

But I am not sure how to apply it to chat, someone please help, thanks

Also I am using ULX for anyone that wonders, and if it applies.

Pretty sure the default chatbox can't handle images so you'd have to use a custom one or make your own

Exho has a tutorial and free example for this

Do I just simply add chat icon code in there, or what?

No thats not how any coding works. You'll have to write a chatbox to implement icons

Ohh, so I have to make the chatbox and implement the code I want in there but at the right spot, and more coding to tell it I want the icons to work in the chat. I'm not a very experienced coder so this won't be very possible for me. Might as well just wait and hope for scriptfodder to release one, thanks for everyone that replied.
