Like many, I'm not a HTML guy. What I wan is toi imbed a hit counter. I know kinda how to do it, but how do I get it in the desired section of the web page? I did successfully imbed the count down timer mentioned earlier, by entering HTML mode. But it isn't where I wanted it, though I just moved some text around and it turned out better than what I originally had in mind. I want to place the counter in the lower left side of my site.
On another issue, the banner on top has wasted space, I would like to keep the iScore in the top left corner, but maybe edit the banner to the right of it. Any ideas?
Thanks, Bob

For the top section, if you log in as the Administrator for your team website, and go to Settings, there is a section called "Header". In there, you can select two separate images... the "logo" which defaults to the iScore logo, but you can select your own from your computer, or have none if you want, and the "background image". The background image is displayed across the entire top section of the page, and you can upload any image there that you want as well.
For Hit Counters, there are lots of free ones available (as we see you found one), but they have to be placed on the "home page" as that is the only HTML editable area right now.

Creating these web pages is a little bit of trial and error. Not knowing exactly what you have already, try this. Enter HTML mode and enter the following at the end of any text that is already on the page
<div style="width: 1000px; text-align: left;">"Hello" World"</div>
You should end up with the words Hello World at the bottom left of your "sandbox" that's the area the FTM let's us play in. It will not show under the menu bar. If it works, you just need to replace the Hello World, with your hit counter code and you'l be all set. Send me a message if you get stuck

unfortunately if you want to do home page customization outside of the WYSWYG editor provided by FTM you kinda have to dip into HTML.. but if you did the countdown counter, you are already there.
here is a web site i like for free page hit counter and free email updates . Others out there if you google them..
http://statcounter.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
the way to get to HTML edit mode is Team Web Site > Log in as admin > Edit Home Page > HTML button upper left
to manipulate the banner on top of team page, login as admin , go to settings and play with "HEADER" settings...
Header : background image is the banner image on top of page that goes from left edge to right and repeats if image smaller than graphic..
Header Logo, is the upper left corner only image, No repeat.
You can narrow the "Top Border Height" Enter 1px as an extreme example.
