Okay, I've looked around to see if I can find the answer to this... those really nice counters I see in lots of girls' signatures ("x months, x days till gurlfrend's GRS...") - where do those come from - how does one add one?  Is there a gallery somewhere?

And then you place the url in your signature line

Okay, I tried that, but I get an error when I try to save it.     I tried all of the various codes, and the only one that would save is the HTML, but that doesn't display the graphic. 

Try posting it here and we might  see why.

Replace all board code with caps

Example:
Instead of
[img][/img]
Have it
[IMG][/IMG]

THANK you, Osiris!  That worked!

You're welcome.
