Hi all!

As I count down the days to my banding (17 to go...), I am pitifully trying to figure out how to use the Ticker thingy. Anyone willing to walk me through it?? I went on the website, got it created, etc, but can't get it on my signature. Is that where I want to put it?? I tried cutting and pasting the URL directly into the signature box (no luck), and I tried pasting it in the box below for the signature picture (again, no luck). When I try to update my signature, I get a message that says I can only have 6 lines in my signature.

I can usually figure these things out, but I am just lost here!!!

HELP if you can!

Thanks!

Kathy

The one that told you you can only have 6 lines is the right place to put it...you just need to shorten what you have there...maybe you have some spaces above it-try deleting any space above the html code you are pasting, then make sure you only have 1-2 lines below it with your actual signature and then see if it works.

Still doesn't work!! I tried eliminating all unused lines...???

When I look at others' signatures, they have many more than 6 lines...ie when they list all their fill dates, weight goals, etc.

Any ideas??

thanks

The latest changes to the site's software limited the signature to 500 characters and 6 lines of text. This happened within the last week to 10 days. So when those folks with the long sigs try to modify them, they will likely also be unable to keep them so long.

There's a couple of threads around here about it, there's one in LBT suggestions that I know of.

Thanks, faithmd! I'll go looking for it!

Here's the link to one of them:
