I am wanting a ticker similar to the sky news channel which runs along the bottom of your screen but i want it at the bottom of my website with local news from my site.

I would also like at the start of the ticker my website logo to be at the start going along and then the news.

Does anyone have any advice to add this to my theme?
Look through available tickers first, then start modding it with the content you want to add.

not the exact ; you can try message bar plugin
Right i have installed one here wirraltalk.co.uk and very happy with it at the moment.
But is there a way to change the font to bold and possibly all in caps.

I also want a small image on the left of the ticker but in the yellow box.
for the font size, see response here
I hope that the plugin coder responds to the other requirements ;

another method : add below in news_ticker.css OR in global.css (at the bottom)

.news_ticker {
font-weight: bold;
text-transform: uppercase;
}

Excellent thank you, it looks really good take a look.
Do you know how to slow the speed down so its more smooth.
Any help with the speed issue please?
^ the speed is coded into the plugin file (around line 68)
$scroll = '<marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" scrollamount="2" scrolldelay="10" onmouseover="this.stop();" onmouseout="this.start();" />';

scrolldelay can be increased as required ...

I have looked in news_ticker.php and that is not there.
