I'm not going to lie to you, I am basically helpless as far as this computer mumbo-jumbie. I mean 'jumbo'-
Can anyone help me put in one of those ticker jobbies?
I'm sure mt 7th grade niece could do it, but, (sigh)...
Thanks,and as always-

Good Morning, MJ!
Click on this link:

Then, pick your ticker, then pick your icon (the thing that will move along the ticker). Then, enter the date of your trip (be sure to update the year) and a brief description.
Once you hit next, it will show a bunch of mumbo/jumbo. Copy the code from 'html'. Have another browser window open with your VIOL page. Log in and hit 'update profile'. You will then paste the mumbo jumbo into your signature line and save. To test, simply go and view your message in this thread to see if it's there.
It is not as difficult as it sounds. Good luck!

Thanks, Nancy! I'm gonna' have to go ahead and ask the little lady for assistance. She's a lot better at this stuff than I am.
I'm from Philly as well. Maybe we'll all meet up one day!
Thanks again-

What area of Philly? I'm from and live in Roxborough. Yes, we may need to have a Philly STJ forum gathering.
If you need help once she tries, send me a PM and I'm happy to help.
When is your trip?

Why are my words not showing up underneath my ticker? I'm certain I've pasted the entire HTML code into my siggy (three times now).
Thanks.

Nancy-
I just took my mother out for dinner at an italian restaurant called "Bella" on Main Street, Manayunk for my birthday. I asked her if she knew that cheesesteak joint you talked about, and she looked at me like I had 3 heads! "Well of course I do, Jimmy."
We should all get together one of these days. Heading to the Phils' game tomorrow night, looking forward to it. Did you ever have a "Schmitter" at the park? GREAT sandwich! You can almost feel your arteries hardening as you eat it.
Check out the groovy ticker-!
Almost there!
Smiles-
MJ
