Thanks Jo - it'll be my best ever pressie!
Mum23kids (please tell me that's your age?) Good luck and keep going, the nasty early symptoms will pass in a little while (mine did).
I think the ticker instructions are in the FAQs somewhere, but if you can't find them (and I can't as I just looked), try this...
click on Uawe CP
choose edit signature,
click on a new internet tab,
go to somewhere like tickerfactory.com,
fill out all the little boxes,
at the end it will produce boxes with weird letters and number
choose the bb text box
you need to copy that text
click at the beginning,
hold down shift and use your arrow keys to go to the end
press control c
click back on to the mini-mins internet tab,
click in the signature box
press control v,
preview signature to check it's worked,
then save signature, and (hopefully) that should be that!
