There's nothing in your signature so you must've not pasted it there. Here is a tutorial with pics: https://www.quittrain.com/topic/15042-creating-a-ticker/

thanks i give up

[Linda]

maybe i did it right

Yay Linda! That ticker looks good on you. Your close but I think you're inserting it as an image and it won't update that way.

You just need to copy the code underneath the ticker you want and then click anywhere in the signature box and paste it, then click save.

You're still copying just the image Linda. Delete both those and try again and this time copy the code under the ticker you want and paste that into your signature text box.

You're so close but you keep copying the image of the ticker. Copy the code under the ticker like I've highlighted here:

I deleted them for you so you can try again when you're ready

@Linda, I'm on my kindle too. So to copy just hold your finger down on the text and when the little text box pops up choose select all and it'll highlight the whole code and then click copy. and then paste that code inside your signature box

[Linda]

I did exactly what you showed highlight code select all and hit copy go to account settings click signature and its not there. Thanks for all your help

 But it is not working

Lol silly you've got to paste it into your signature, after you copy it and go to your signature box if you're on your kindle just press down for a second inside the box until you see that little select all box come up but this time click paste. THEN save and that should be it

[Linda]

Oh my god, that was enough to make me drink and smoke LOL

[Linda]

Almost not really,good thing I didn't have any. Thank you for all your help. I needed the book How to make a ticker for dummies

[jillar]

Well done Linda! That is a very nice choice in tickers
