As you may have noticed, we recently brought back Name Colors for special ranks. You can now easily spot certain members of Smashboards, with Admins being grey, Moderators being Red, and our supportive Premium users sporting an updated Blue color to match their banners.

On top of this, we've added the ability for Premium users to link other accounts they own, to allow them to easily switch between them. This is ideal for those users who have alternate accounts for running their Smash events, mod content, or who run forum games that make use of other accounts for their purposes. Please remember that having multiple accounts is not permitted without permission.

You can check out the details of supporting Smashboards through Premium and if you have any, feel free to make any suggestions you may have for Smashboards here.

We hope our users enjoy these new features, and look forward to further improvements to Smashboards.

As an update for everyone, we recently added a new Premium page that gives you a nice at a glance view of all the Premium perks at a convenient and easy to remember link.

Most importantly though, we recently added the selection of your Smash 4 main character to the Personal Details page. Unique to Premium users however, is the ability to show your Smash 4 Main in your post background.

We hope our wonderful supporters enjoy this additional little bonus!

Is there a way to turn off the ghostly post backgrounds, though? I find them to be rather annoying and distracting.

Is there a way to gift Smashboards Premium membership to another user? Virgilijus told me that there is, and he said to check the announcements forum, but I don't see the instructions anywhere.

Out of curiosity, is Wario one of the Post Backgrounds? Seriously considering this.

$15 is really cheap and is making me consider it this payday...especially if I can get one of those cool backgrounds that has Luigi

Animated GIFs are extremely distracting to begin with.

Warchamp7, make a Smashboards radio program and give premium users access to higher quality stream.

I've been interested in switching to premium for awhile now, mainly to change my out-dated username.

However, I kind of dislike the banner, and blue name, it's the main reason I haven't gone through with it yet

Are those toggle-able?

I dislike blue. Otherwise, I'd have gone for it.

It wouldn't be that difficult to give users the option to change their name and banner colors, right? There could be a preset number of colors available to avoid complete obnoxiousness.

We considered colour options but in the end decided it was clearer and cleaner to just have it never one

I really like this new feature, having your Smash 4 main beside your posts.

This was worth it!

If you plan to go on this site a lot, 15$ for a year is next to nothing cost-wise, even if you're on minimum wage. I like Smashboards, I spend a lot of time here, I like that it's a free site, I like the community and I appreciate the effort the staff puts into it. Felt right to give a little back.

Hold on to that optimism.

It will keep you going through these dark times
