Tickers, Icons, and Awards
**note - a site update lost my code for more recent banners & icons -- I will be updating this page soon. So sorry! ** ~ Kim March '07
Joining the walk and want to get a ticker for your site, or a little walking banner to show your participation? You've come to the right place! Here are the codes for the different graphics:
| This Month's Banner | Tickers |
| Goal Reached Awards | Participation Awards |
August Banner Code:
<a href="http://www.andfam.net/walk"><img src="http://www.andfam.net/walk/challenge08.gif" border=0></a>Tickers
To calculate your progress and get the corresponding ticker, visit the Walking Challenge Quicker Ticker Picker Page
That's where you can get a ticker like this one, and update it with your progress:
At Melissa's suggestion, I've added some graphics:
The "goal reached" awards are now monthly, so you can make a little virtual trophy wall:

I emailed you from the email me link off your blog, but for anyone else -- go to the quicker ticker picker page link. If you put in your goal and your current miles walked, it returns the code (html or bbcode) for you to put into your blog or sig line or whatever. Do let me know if you have any problems with it.
(If you're used to the sig lines that you can update just by changing the url, you can sort of do that, but the ticker URLs come in steps of 5% progress, so round your progress to the nearest 5% and change the gif from, say, 05.gif to 10.gif ... make sense? if not, just use the ticker picker script, LOL!!!!)

Count me in at 50 miles and please link to my blog:) Thanks for the cool ticker and sign! Very nifty! Now I gotta get busy walking!
Posted by: Melissa Markham at April 2, 2006 10:01 PMI tried (but if you know me) somehow Idid not get anything. Input a goal of GASP! 50 miles and have not yet started. So 0. I will start tomorrow.
Posted by: Judy at April 25, 2006 2:42 PMAND of course you can link to me.
And i tried to get the cute little signs but when i put in my goal and the amount that I had done nothing happened. Actually I am not too sure that I can be called compter literate so who knows what I did wrong! LOL
Are we going to be blessed with some June awards:) Your friendly pesterer:)
