About Pregnancy Tickers

By: John Bottash

Pregnancy Tickers are small pieces of web code that you can put on your web page or email signature to let people know how long until you get married.

From a technical point of view the tickers can come in several varieties. Flash and HTML are the most common but the server generated static images are the most compatible and the easiest to use. Server Generated ticker are nothing more than a link to a picture that the web server writes you information on every time it is called. The one concern is that the image file cannot be being stored by a another server along the way or your ticker will not update. Lifeticker.com is a site that uses the static image tickers.

Flash and html tickers are also very popular and can produce great results. They may not be compatible with as many sites so be sure to see what will work where you want to use the tickers.

The number of potential designers is limitless but we will look at two basic different styles: Counters and sliders. Counters have a numerical countdown on the image and it changes to reflect how much time is left to go. The sliders have a small icon that moves along a path to represent how much time is left to go. The choice is really up to you and there is no right or wrong answer.

Alway be aware that when you use tickers you are putting a piece of person information out on the web for the whole world to see. But you are putting a limited amount of information and nothing that is that secure. But you always need to be careful. Remember, once you put a ticker out you have made your due date public to the whole world.
