    There are a few sites that have them. Lilypis is popular.
    http://lilypie.com/

    At the bottom there will be a few link choices. Choose the second, "Pseudo code" Copy and paste the MIDDLE OF THE LINK ONLY! It'll start with http and end in .png You don't need any of the stuff in brackets that is before and after that. I hope that makes sense!

    Thanks! I was wondering how to do that too.

    ETA: well it doesn't look like it worked. I'll try again.

    I got it to work but I'm getting some extra code - any idea how to get rid of that? Thanks!

    It looks like you fixed the extra code! For those of you who are wondering, the instructions they give you on the lilypie/babysfirstsite/gynosaur, etc., give you all this extra code in brackets with img and so on. All you need is the url of the actual picture. So you can cut out all the extra code stuff.

    So for example,

    http: // www . babysfirstsite . org/newtickers/ticker/16994.birthday.png

    (without the spaces) would result in

    http://www.babysfirstsite.org/newtic...4.birthday.png

    The codes that they have in brackets are for other web boards and for some reason they don't work on these boards.

    HTH!

    http://www.tickercentral.com is another site that allows you to do a little more customizing than Lilypie.

    OK, now that I have one, how do I get it to show up each time I post? How do I save it? (Sorry if this is one of those "Duh!" questions, I'm very computer-ignorant!)

    OK- I think I have it attached and the correct URL, but I'm not sure how to make it appear... it shows up on my profile after I edit it, but then not on my posts- grr!

    Hooray- it works now- but didn't in another folder- could that be a reason why?
    Also wondering if it updates or the dates are current as of the posting date. I realize this is a question I can answer myself by coming back and checking here tomorrow.
    Happy 2005 everyone!
