Hi ya Brandy,

These tickers causes so many people grief!  Don't use the code, just copy and paste your ticker where you would be putting the code, and then it should work. 

As a newbie... can somebody also tell me where the signature area is in the control panel?  I can't find it TO put a ticker in it
