I don't see a ticker in your siggy so just in case you don't have a site, here is a pretty good one, there are lots of tickers here and no you don't have to download anything......... Vacation, Cruise, Holiday, Excursion, Travel Ticker
Just when you are finished making your ticker you have to copy the Bb code and paste it over here under "edit signature".

[Tinkgirl]

I put it in the sig and I saved it and it say Invalid URL and Invalid flie

[GIOny]

Are you using the Bb code? Also make sure you are coping the entire code, you usually have to scroll down in the code box to get to the end of the code. I start from the bottom and copy it by scrolling up. Also what site are you usuing? I've had some trouble with certain sites that's why I usually end up using Tickery Factory.

'mI using Tickery Factory and at first it when to the rulers but now when I wanna make one it says write pin so I put in 88898045 it works...but now the ticker has no name or the days.

You know I just tried it and your right I got this thing that asked for a pin #. That's strange because I've never gotten that before and also it didn't ask for any dates. I think it has to do with the catagories that you choose on the first page.
Here is a copy of the first page........

Weight Loss/Fitness Debt Reduction/Savings Weight Loss Display your progress. Count down to your target weight. Plot your weight on an online graph. Debt Reduction Ticker Track your progress towards reducing your debt. Exercise & Fitness Ticker Track your progress towards your exercise and fitness goal. Savings Ticker Visualize your savings efforts. Body Mass Index (BMI) Calculator Fundraising Ticker A Fundraising Meter. Trying To Conceive/Pregnancy Wedding, Birthday, Anniversary... Trying To Conceive Create a menstrual cycle day count. Wedding Count down to the big day. Pregnancy Count your weeks and days of pregnancy. Due Date count down. Birthday Count down to a birthday. Baby and Child Age Display the age of your baby or child. Anniversary Count down to your anniversary. Event Count down or up to a special event. Crafts/Hobbies Vacation/Travel Scrapbooking Track your scrapbooking layouts. Vacation & Travel Count down to an upcoming vacation or travel.

Notice how under Wedding, Birthday,Anniversary,Event, & Vacation & Travel it says it's a countdown and then under saving, Weight Loss, Debt reduction etc. it doesn't say that, those tickers will count down differently. So if you want to countdown time, use one of the catagories that say countdown in them, see if that works. We'll figure this out somehow

IT STILL DOES IT!!!!IT SAY Choose a Password/Pin:

[ungis]

Try these websites, too:

eTickr : Pregnancy Ticker, Birthday Ticker, Baby Ticker

. v50.net . forum . search .

They are easy to use. Not much graphics variety, but you can get started on these.

Remember to copy the entire row where BB CODE is located. If you still have problems, let me know, and I'll help you.

I just tried it under "events" and I didn't get the notice of using a pin or password, maybe you have to sign in first? Not sure what the problem could be? Have you ever done a ticker from Ticker Factory before either here or another forum?

[Tinkgirl]

no and ungis I try the 2 site but I put the ticker bbcode in the box and then I click save sig and It said Invalid File

<----like my avatar?

[ungis]

Cute avatar, I do like it!!!

I'm not really sure how you are going about this ticker thing, I would like to help you. Let me see what I can do. I'll let you know.

[GIOny]

I like your avatar too!! Maybe if you tell ungis & I exactly what you are doing step by step we can help you. Do you belong to any other forums? If so, then try posting a ticker in the other forum, then maybe we can rule out that it's some kind of forum problem or setting that you may have turmed on or off.

[Tinkgirl]
