I am on my phone right now but with /fstack I was able to get the frame name. I would something like countdowntimer = CreateFrame ("Frame", nil, (the frames name)) countdowntimer:SetPoint ("BOTTOM", (the frame name), 0, 0) to create a frame to put the count down in. Ive seen DBM have a count down stays bar show. But I'm just looking for a numeric count down nothing dance. Ill look threw DBM maybe I can find how they get the timer info. Coke

The basic function is simple enough. I use this for a pull timer, though it uses a chat output

local pull, seconds, onesec
local frame = CreateFrame("Frame")
frame:Hide()
frame:SetScript("OnUpdate", function(self, elapsed)
    --Start DBM pull timer
    onesec = onesec - elapsed
    pull = pull - elapsed
    if pull <= 0 then
        SendChatMessage("Pulling!", cfg.channelannounce)
        self:Hide()
    elseif onesec <= 0 then
        SendChatMessage(seconds, cfg.channelannounce)
        seconds = seconds - 1
        onesec = 1
    end
end)
SlashCmdList["COUNTDOWN"] = function(t)
    t = tonumber(t) or 6
    pull = t + 1
    seconds = t
    onesec = 1
    frame:Show()
end
SLASH_COUNTDOWN1 = "/inc"

just replace SendChatMessage and a few other things with a status bar fill I imagine.
