Thanks sheri, I was actually trying to do an updated one. I lost 2 lbs.. LOL I just went in and saved the new one to my desktop and then uploaded it from there.. but as you can see that way doesn't work either... any suggestions??

Ok that was odd... I went to another ticker site and made a new ticker. I saved it to desktop as well then uploaded... that one works fine. Odd.. it must be a ticker factory issue because the same exact steps work fine for one site but not another one.

What is the wait time before the option to add a siggie is available?

60 days and at least 60 posts is what I was told.. and sure enough after 60 posts I got the siggy option. I had to wait 60 days to get the "add an image to your siggy" option.

You are not the first person to have an issue with Ticker Factory.. Not sure why it is so difficult sometimes to get the tickers in.. I know people are doing it right.. Glad you got it worked out..

Change made to Registered Users / Signatures

LCF has encountered an increase in spam lately where spammers are exploiting the site by posting links in their Signature. In an attempt to address this issue, we have decided to prevent Registered users from accessing the Signature area of their profile. Registered users are those who have been members for less than 25 days AND have less than 25 posts.

We apologize to any Registered members who might be affected by this change. We ask that you please be patient as the ability to access your Signature will be available after you have been a member for 25 days AND 25 posts.

Thank you to all our loyal members who consistently report spam to Administrators!

This looks way too complicated. Think I will stick with what I have. Would like to add a picture near my name, though.

If you need additional help you can always send me your ticker or the png addy of it and I will put it in for you.

cheri

Thank you for having this help here. I tried several time fr it to work. I did work one time, then nothing. I am happy to learn one has t be here for 60 days to make it work.

So if I come back here after my 60 period is up you will help me put on in? I will so do

that
I am going to put an alarm on my cell phone t remind me when my 60 days has passed.

Thank you Cheri,
marylouise

[B][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Hi again Cheryl.

When I did go to the ticker factory I could only view one. I was wondering, something. Is that because I have not been here 60 days. Will your reply on my thread? Please.

Thank you, Cheri. I searched the site for an hour before I finally found where it tells how to do this. Then I saw your thread....very kind of you to post it. It's not easy to find.

Hi Cheri!

I have been a long time member, but do not have 60 posts. I would like to add a ticker to my signature and was wondering if you could help me out.

This was awesome help Cheri!! I have been trying to figure this out now for days!!! I'm so glad I found this post!!! Now if staying committed and on this way of life can be just as easy!!! Have a super day!!

;o)

Texas Cowgirl · 01-12-2012, 04:37 PM

cheri, I'm having the same problem that KalamityKaTT was with the black background on the ticker. I've tried both ways, being sure to use the .png extension when copying the url and also saving the ticker image to my computer. It shows white background on my computer but turns black when uploaded. Strangely enough, it's the same purple flower design that she was using. I've recreated the ticker several times and gone step by step following the sticky instructions. But it still doesn't turn out right. It looks like someone found the answer for her, though! Thanks, Janet
