It's at the very bottom. And yes, it is a very nice countdown timer. Having the milliseconds on there really makes it look like it's counting down fast, huh?

It's in Flash. Do you block Flash?

Ahaha, yeah, I forgot about that.. I've seen stevey do some amazing things with the forums - maybe he can pull this off. I still don't know how you would go about changing the font.
Quote Is it just me or does the PS3 one reminds you of a bomb with its color scheme?
A time bomb!

I don't think stevey set-out to find a way to change the font, it's one of those silly little things you just stumble apon.

The font-changing secret is indeed disappointing.
It'd be nice if we could ask cattank how to embed flash. Too bad I banned him...

I take it there is no chance to allow the "embed" html tags?

Only if you are a mod, which is probably how "cattank" did it.

Mods (non-senior staff) can't do much of anything since we don't have Admin status. We can lock, unlock, sticky, and ban.

There is not an option to toggle HTML in a post? I was just guessing, not really familiar with FuseTalk at all as it's such a rare choice for forums.

I don't think so. Here's a good way of figuring out what the mods can and can't do: note everything I didn't do when I was a mod.

Okay, I really thought about starting a Wii countdown tread tonight, but then realized that for the 24-ish hours leading up to the release, I won't be near a computer where I can update the thread...

By the time we figure out how to get this flash on the page the Wii will be out already lol.

Okay. We have two options:
1. figure out a way to prevent the forums from parsing '>' as '>' edit: ahaha, I meant '>'
2. figure out a way to get a countdown inside a single tag (either <a> or <img>). Flash would be impossible, but javascript might not be.
