Create a counter for stills

Hi there!
I need to add a simple counter over a slideshow so I can send it to my client and they can reorder things or make changes without driving me completly nuts.
There are 104 stills all with the same duration (10 secs each). The last pic enters at 1139 secs.(the comp has 1149secs)
I visited Dan Ebbert´s site and after playing with numbers I came up with this and applyed to the
Source
of a text layer:
//start code
numDecimals = 0;
beginCount = 1;
endCount = 104;
dur = 1139;
t = time - inPoint;
s = linear (t, 0, dur, beginCount, endCount).toFixed(numDecimals);
//end code
It kind of works but it´s not actually counting right. The numbers come up too late. i.e. #2 is displayed only after pic#2 is up for a while. (and it gets in later and later as it progresses.)
I´m still trying here but I wonder if someone would give me a hand.
Hope I made myself clear enough. I allready looked around the forum for old posts. Most helped but I couldn't find the real one answer.
Ok enough of that. Off to work .
Thanx in advance.
Cheers.
