        var ie4 = false;
        if(document.all) {
                ie4 = true; 
        }       
        function setContent(name, value) {
                var d;  
                if (ie4) { 
                        d = document.all[name];
                } else {
                        d = document.getElementById(name);
                }       
                d.innerHTML = value;    
        }       

    function getContent(name) {
        var d;
                if (ie4) {
                        d = document.all[name];

        function setColor(name, value) {
                var d;  
                if (ie4) { 
                        d = document.all[name];

                }
                d.style.color = value;  
        }

    function getColor(name) {
                var d;
                if (ie4) {
                        d = document.all[name];
                } else {
                        d = document.getElementById(name);
                }
                return d.style.color;
        }

        function animate(name, col) {
        var value = getContent(name);
        if (value.indexOf('<span') >= 0) { return; }
        var length = 0;
                var str = '';
        var ch;
        var token = '';
        var htmltag = false;    
                for (i = 0; i < value.length; i++) {
            ch = value.substring(i, i+1);
            if (i < value.length - 1) { nextch = value.substring(i+1, i+2); } else { nextch = ' '; }
            token += ch;
            if (ch == '<' && '/aAbBpPhHiIoOuUlLtT'.indexOf(nextch) >= 0) { htmltag = true; }
            if (ch == '>' && htmltag) { htmltag = false; }
            if (!htmltag && ch.charCodeAt(0) > 30 && ch != ' ' && ch != '\n') {        
                            str += '<span id="' + name + '_' + length + '">' + token + '</span>';
                token = '';
                length++;
            }
                }
                setContent(name, str);
                command = 'animateloop(\'' + name + '\', ' + length + ', 0, 1, \'' + col + '\')';
                setTimeout(command , 100);
        }

        function animateloop(name, length, ind, delta, col) {
        var next = ind + delta;
        if (next >= length) { delta = delta * -1; next = ind + delta; }
        if (next < 0) { delta = delta * -1; next = ind + delta; }
                setColor(name + '_' + ind, getColor(name + '_' + next));
                setColor(name + '_' + next, col);
                command = 'animateloop(\'' + name + '\', ' + length + ', ' + next + ', ' + delta + ', \'' + col + '\')';
                setTimeout(command , 100);
        }
</SCRIPT>

Finally add this in usergroup settings:
Code:
<span id="animate"> -> </span>
Example:
Code:
http://linked-forum.com/forum.php
Drag a username everywhere! (Brilliant)
Add this code inbetween <head> and </head>
Code:
<style type="text/css">

.drag{
position:relative;
cursor:hand;
z-index: 100;
}

</style>

<script type="text/javascript">

var dragobject={
z: 0, x: 0, y: 0, offsetx : null, offsety : null, targetobj : null, dragapproved : 0,
initialize:function(){
document.onmousedown=this.drag
document.onmouseup=function(){this.dragapproved=0}
},
drag:function(e){
var evtobj=window.event? window.event : e
this.targetobj=window.event? event.srcElement : e.target
if (this.targetobj.className=="drag"){
this.dragapproved=1
if (isNaN(parseInt(this.targetobj.style.left))){this.targetobj.style.left=0}
if (isNaN(parseInt(this.targetobj.style.top))){this.targetobj.style.top=0}
this.offsetx=parseInt(this.targetobj.style.left)
this.offsety=parseInt(this.targetobj.style.top)
this.x=evtobj.clientX
this.y=evtobj.clientY
if (evtobj.preventDefault)
evtobj.preventDefault()
document.onmousemove=dragobject.moveit
}
},
moveit:function(e){
var evtobj=window.event? window.event : e
if (this.dragapproved==1){
this.targetobj.style.left=this.offsetx+evtobj.clientX-this.x+"px"
this.targetobj.style.top=this.offsety+evtobj.clientY-this.y+"px"
return false
}
}
}

dragobject.initialize()

</script>
Than simply add this into usergroup:
<b class="drag"> -> </b>

Example:
usernamedrag.jpg

Few little error eg. their's no such thing as </img> but otherwise nice work and should be helpful for those who want it.

It's also better pratice to use <strong> instead of <b>, stay away from marquee etc due to browser compatability.
