  Removing Ticker Links Reply Contact (Mods, feel free to move this wherever you want it) I made a fake ticker at TickerFactory and BabyGaga, so this should work the same for both... When you make your ticker, they will give you the "code" that you're supposed to add to your sig.  Here's some code for my fake ticker (I've added spaces so that you can see the code and not the actual graphical output): [url = http://www.TickerFactory.com/] [/url] The part of the code is the link.  So, to remove the clickable link and only keep the image, remove the [url=....] tag and the ' target='_blank' title=' part of the code is the link.  So, to remove the clickable link and only keep the image, remove the [url=....] tag and the '> part of the code is the link.  So, to remove the clickable link and only keep the image, remove the [url=....] tag and the tag.  For my example, I would be left with: [img] http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/d/4;10731;116/st/20070729/e/no+more+ticker+links%21%21/dt/-1/k/2c88/event.png  ' border='0' /> Which would look like (no linky!): Or vankelderdogs.dutchbingo.net U-CH Alta-Tollhaus-Krieger Lamb Chop RA CL1-F CL1-R TT HIC TDI CGC (GSD) VPC's Coca-Cola CGC (All American) Alta-Tollhaus' Bono (GSD)

  RE: Removing Ticker Links Reply Contact They should.  I know the TF ones do b/c that's what I use and have no link.  It has been updating every day.  That nasty long url for the image looks like it contains all the parameters needed to generate the right image each day.  I haven't used a BG ticker, but I'd assume they work the same, or people could just use TF tickers instead (they have baby tickers). vankelderdogs.dutchbingo.net U-CH Alta-Tollhaus-Krieger Lamb Chop RA CL1-F CL1-R TT HIC TDI CGC (GSD) VPC's Coca-Cola CGC (All American) Alta-Tollhaus' Bono (GSD)

When you remove that link, you're violating THEIR terms of service. The links back to their site (not image links, actual links) are a big factor in their sites popping up on search engines, which in turn powers their visits to advertisers.

The links back to their site (not image links, actual links) are a big factor in their sites popping up on search engines, which in turn powers their visits to advertisers.   Yes, but if that's the case, tickers from that site (or those sites) aren't permitted here.  What matters, here, is not the TOS for any other site but the TOS for this forum.  Even if we wanted to, staff don't have time to make sure that posts here conform to the terms of countless other sites, nor is it the function of this forum to provide advertising (via search engine counts) to other sites.  We are responsible for what happens here, and here the rule is that sigs must be delinked.  Kate - Dog.community Administrator Jokers to the right.
