My bad.. its not right at the bottom but about 1/2 way down. It says signature on the left and there is a big white box next to it. Thats where you put your ticker info. It's just below where you seem icq number, AIM address, MSN address, etc. Hope that helps!

Me again! LOL. I'll get you straightened out soon! I think you are clicking on the profile button in your messages? The correct profile link to click is above where the messages are and below where the mona lisa pic. It's right below the FAQ link.

Aurelia, we can be brace buddies, lol! Today is definitely the best day so far. I think in a few more days the worst will be over, at least for now.

Oceangirl, thanks for your patience! Yes, I was clicking in the wrong profile. I added it to the proper one and now with any luck it will work!

Oh fudge, I see that it didn't!

Change your code so that it looks like this. Your ticker works when I click on it so its just a matter of getting the code right. Try putting the [img on a seperate line like below.

Whoops thats not my ticker! I still have my braces!

Not sure what you meant. I tried putting a return after [img] but it didn't do any good. Am I ever going to get this?

Okay, here goes!

Trying again... You know what? I give up.

Thanks, but I've tried everything everyone's suggested and nothing is working. Apparently, I'm just not getting what y'all are trying to say. I'm just going to remove the whole thing and forget it. Thanks for trying, though.

Wow... y'all are making that ticker thing really complicated...

I followed this thread, and my ticker came out perfectly!

After setting up your ticker copy the top box of stuff and then paste it into your signature... and then erase everything before the first [img] and erase everything after the last [img]...

and then it's beautiful!

But that's exactly what I keep doing and it never works. If you compare my signature to the sample one in your link, it's the same configuration. I copied my ticker out of the top box of tickerfactory.com after setting it up, pasted it into my profile, and deleted everything before the first [img] and everything after the last [img] but for some reason it refuses to work!

oh oh oh -

I know why!!!!

Go into your profile, and look at the question that reads:

Always allow BBCode:

That should be yes.

I just changed mine to no, and then my signature showed up just like yours, I changed it back to yes and then it's correct again!

Try that and let me know if it works!

Bianca, you are a GENIUS! Thank you, thank you! I was starting to think I was cursed, lol! And thanks to everyone who helped. Everyone here is so nice.

YAY! You got it working!! Glad to see that you are enjoying the board.

Thanks, O., you've been a big help.
