Your post is too vague, in that there are no specific details about what kind of counter you wish to form.
I've answered regarding this topic so many times that I've put together a little word.doc with a bunch of ideas in it. I'll email it to you at the address you provided when you posted.
Feel free to email back with any additional questions...or you can post them here...I'll TRY to revisit this thread...but I always answer email.
