If you are on Gurlpages, Angelfire, or Chicpages, you must do one more step for your countdown buttons to work.  If your pages have one of these addresses, copy and paste the codes that I gave you.  Load the images in the same way.  However, do the following:

Here is the code for the Starfish countdown.  Notice that there are three things in red.

<!-- Start of Starfish Code-->

<div align="center"><center>

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="50%" bgcolor="#66D9FF"

style="background-color: rgb(255,252,198); font-family: Verdana; color: rgb(214,192,2); border: 3px solid rgb(196,20,20)"

var date = new Date("September 12, 2004");

var description = "Alexa's Birthday!";

var now = new Date();

var diff = date.getTime() - now.getTime();

var days = Math.floor(diff / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));

document.write("<center><h3>")

if (days > 1) {

document.write(days + " days until " + description);

}

else if (days == 1) {

document.write("Only two days until " + description);

}

else if (days == 0) {

document.write("Tomorrow " + description);

}

else {

document.write("Today " + description + "!");

}

document.write("</h3></center>");

// End -->

</script> </td>

<end of Starfish Code>

You have to do the following:

1.  Change the date in red to your birthday

2.  Change my name to your own

3.  Ok, this is the important part for Gurlpages, Chickpages, Angelfire.  These three servers automatically put all your images into a separate directory called, duh, "images."  So you have to take this into account when you write your html code for these three places.  So go up to the third red item, the name of the image.   It looks like this:

<img src="starfish.gif" WIDTH="99" HEIGHT="46"></td>

Make the following change:

<img src="images/starfish.gif" WIDTH="99" HEIGHT="46"></td>

What  you have to add is in green.  Of course, if you are using a different countdown button, the name of the image will be different.   But you still just add before it the words in green.   If you do this, your image will show up when you publish everything.  Don't forget, you have to publish the html code AND the image!
