I'm ready to get an excersise ticker! But now I can't find the posts I saw that told me were to get them. Any help?

Thanks, I found it and made one but now I can't put it on my profile. It just shows up as words. I tried all three options it gives the codes in.
Sarah try highlighting the location of the ticker -for example "http://......something.png" and copy it with ctrl + C then on your profile click the little icon that looks like a mountain with the sun in it. a box will pop up asking for the image address click in the box and hit ctrl +V then click on insert image and presto!

Best Wishes
Thanks for trying to help me but i'm hopeless! I couldn't get it on my profile. And I also couldn't find the exersise tickers, only the weight loss ones. Thanks anyways!
Here is step-by-step instructions, hopefully this will help.
1.  Go to www.tickerfactory.com go to the bottom of the page and you will see Excersise and Fitness link.  Click on it.

2. Now go through steps and create the ticker.

3. Select the HTML code.  It's the second text box.  Select ALL of the text!  Copy the selected text.

4. Go to CC website, than go to your profile and click edit on top. 

5. Go to About Yourself part and paste the text.  Now click update and go view your profile.  It probably shows the text not the ticker.  It happens to me sometimes.

6. To fix this I click on edit again and without changing anything click on update yet again.  It should work now. 

I hope this is more or less clear, if not let me know.  Good luck!!

Thanks but it still just shows the text. I did every thing right i think. I left it that way thinking that mabey if I log out that next time I come back it will finally work, but it still just shows the text. I need to go back and make sure I copied all the text but I'm pretty sure I did.
sarah - I was working on this same thing last night, and I think I know the problem you might be having.

aroyzen1983's instructions are good, but I think at the beginning of step 5... before you can paste the text, click on the green button above that looks like <>.  That will change your About Yourself section into html code.  Paste the ticker code in there, and then continue by clicking Update.

(If you have previously typed anything into your About Yourself section, the html code you see when you click <>, might look daunting.  Just scroll down to the very end of it, and paste the ticker code there.  Then Update.  Your ticker will show up at the bottom of your About Yourself section.)

Let me know if you have any more problems.  I love troubleshooting.  :)
Thanks every body! It worked! I have two tickers now... But I planned on having more than that. It won't let me do it. It keeps making the third one look just like the second one. I don't get it. Is there a two ticker limit? Oh well, at least I got the two most imporant ones! But I still want one for push ups and sit ups but I guess I don't need a ticker too make me do them. I just need will power. Tobad I can't display that someplace where i will see it every day to motivate and remind me. lol

Thanks again everybody, You all are really helpful every time I need help, nomatter when it's support I need or just silly computer problems (that usually end up being operator error anyways, LOL)
They have made it so much easier now.  Just go to tickers, set the background and ticker you like, and click on "Save Changes."  Then select "Get Code," but instead of copying the code just click on "Add to Calorie-Count.com Profile" right underneath the code box.  When you go to your profile it's all there!
Thanks, thats really cool but it still will only let me have 2. Is there a limit?
There seems to be no limit using this method.  I put up five tickers and then stopped trying to add more. Try it!
