Hello everyone!

This is azzkiker, admin of www.hl2files.com

I would really appreciate it if someone could make me a JavaScript script.
I would like a countdown timer that consists of days, hours, minutes and seconds from teh present GMT time till September the 30th 2003 at 12PM GMT.
I would like it to be similar to the one at the top of the page of http://www.halflife2source.com except the writing is ORANGE and the back ground is BLACK. I would also like the same "bubble" text font.


Please send the script to azzkiker@hl2files.com
Much appreciated and thanx in advance!

Here is a link to several count down scripts. You may be able to adapt one of them to your needs.
