Can anyone tell me how I can add a countdown timer and update my profile. I've forgotten how to do it. thanks for your help.
 
Just click on another dis members countdown timer and it will take you to the site to add your own.
 
Thanks for the link, Readytogoback, but I think I'll give up, I'm not computer literate enough to understand or follow those confusing directions
thanks anyway

Take a look at the FAQ thread on this page and the Video Tutorial, they may help you. It is just a matter of copying the bbcode from the countdown site and putting it in your sig.

We have a Testing board that you can use to test your signature. Please don't test it on the Welcome Board.

Let me know if you need more help. :)
 

Hi, I just added a countdown so the instructions are fresh in my mind. Perhaps I can help you too.

Okay, as the other poster said, click on someones countdown ticker to get to the site.
Step 1, choose a background.
Step 2, chooses a slider
Step 3, add text
Step 4 click on 'create'

On the next screen you will be shown various different codes.
Pic the second one, called PseudoHTML, UBBCode™ or BBCode
Copy it.

Then go to your user control area here on the DIS. If you don't know where that is, scroll to the top of this page look on the left side. In the dark blue strip, on the far left, the first choice is 'user CP' Click it,
Then 'settings and options' then 'edit signature'.
Then paste your code in to the box and add your ticker. Voila! You should then be the proud owner of a shiny new count down ticker. I hope these instructions work for you.
