Just a little something i needed!

http://www.tutorialadvisor.com/tutorials/COUNTDOWN_TIMER-1263.html

this tutorial i used to implient the count down timer for my seasonal banner. it was really useful as it taught me exactly how to do it and made me type the whole code in myself as it is a video so i could just copy and paste the code into the action window, i hated this at the time but it taught me more in the long run. i really like the way that this guy teaches, he didnt go too fast and you can pause it if you get lost. the oonli downside that this has is that it is in actionscript 2 but im sure in time there will be more uptodate tutorials by and him and i would defo use them again.
