Instead of this you can now use a BB code to countdown to your trip. Place something like

Next Aruba trip in [countdown=12/31/2010 5:00 AM;I'm finally there]Count down:[/countdown]

in your post to get this result

Next Aruba trip in

You can try this above.

Aruba Lisa, I'm sorry but I am really dumb when it comes to this. I go to my profile and then I don't know where to go.

Try this :
User CP
Under Settings & Options
Edit Signature

Then insert into your signature box using your own dates

Next Aruba trip in [countdown=12/31/2010 5:00 AM;I'm finally there]Count down:[/countdown]

You can view all of the code above by using the scroll bar.

When you have your code inserted into your signature, make sure scroll down and click "save signature".

Thanks alot Aruba Lisa!!!

You are very welcome! I am happy that you were able to get it up and running.

Now if you want a challenge, you can go back in and insert whatever text you would like before where it says bracket countdown=...

For example, my code looks like

When Will Dh Take Me Back to Aruba? [countdown=06/19/2009 12:00 PM]Count down:[/countdown]

Kent, I could not figure out how to get my countdown thing working either, even with everyone's expert advice.....then I saw on Robo's signature a ticker from the tickerfactory......just go to the tickerfactory.com(see signature below), pick a ticker, put in the dates and then add it to your signature......pretty easy even for me....
