I would have to disagree, I think it could be done with a bit of javascript as well. The program could even be too complicated for the normal user. I believe you could drop the absolute positioning of elements for example.

I've already looked at PayPal - they offer very limited service to residents of Latvia - I could only send money, not receive it.
That's really too bad...

Sure, I could put ads on the site, but I don't think it would be much use - I imagine people would sign up, "set-and-forget" a ticker and rarely come back to the site itself.
Take a look at Userbars.com - The 1st and original userbar site with thousands of userbars for free., they seem to be doing something similar, and they neither requires payment or reciprocal link, but I have no idea if they make anything from their ads...

You could also require users to register to make their "ticker", and in that way you can build up a nice database of users that you can spam (oops, did I say that)!
