Im sure someone else can use this also.
It makes the text fly on to the page.
To use it,
Copy and paste the code below to your ie notepad.
Change the Thanks for visiting! to anything you want.
Save to your pc or file as a .txt file.
Then upload it to your soho file manager.
Go to the page/edit you want it on and insert it throu the custom code button.
