Welcome!

I think you can make a siggy the day after 25 posts. The little scales are usually from tickerfactory.com, but I couldn't figure out how to add it to my siggy. I'm sure someone here can help you out with that!

miracles,
go to http://www.tickerfactory.com and select weight tracker option then click "next" button
select your ticker ruler and then click "next" button
select your ticker slider then click the "next" button
configure your weight ticker with unit of measure, track weight or change, starting, current and target wieght then click the "next" button
then below the first line on the page that reads "Done! Your Ticker URL is:" you will find an address to the picture for your ticker image
select and copy this address *it will look like this
http://www.TickerFactory.com/ezt/d/...145/weight.png*
then after copying this address go to the userCP page and select the "edit signature" option from the top of the menu on the laft side
then click the button that is yellow and looks like a little picture of a mountain with a sun or moon above it
this is your "Insert Image" button
a dialogue box will appear that has the text "explorer user prompt" , "script prompt","enter the text to be formatted","[img]xxx[/img]
right click on the blue highlighted "http://" and choose paste option
then click the "OK" button and then click the "save signature" button
good luck !

Thanks Cincyguy for the very detailed instructions! I finally have a ticker!

You do have to create a new on to update them, correct?

That is my question also - do you do a new Ticker each time you need to change the weight?

updating ticker
 

ya, i thikn you have to do a new one for changes, they don't automatically update when, say, you change your statistics in your profile. but look at it as a way to exercise your artistic freedom and creat a new design. unless, of course, you're like me and consider it a a miracle you got it to work the first time ;)

thanks I had the same question. This is a little overwhelming,so much to learn.If you only knew how many times my KIDS have to help me with this computer!!!! :lol:

We actually changed it recently so that new members can now add a signature straight away if they wish. :)

Rosebud:rose:

I was gonna say, I didnt have to wait any time to get mine up there

Thank you Cincy and thank you Rosebud!

My signature is showing when I preview it, but where is it? Does it take a while to show up on my posts?:help:

uhhh...nevermind. I thought it would appear on all my old posts... woops!:lol:

LOL! I wish I would have found this thread before I spent an hour trying to figure out how to do this very thing. Oh well.... I did it anyway. Don't know if it will work correctly though. LOL.

how do I get my numbers to show up at the bottom of my little scale?
