A Silly Question- How to add Adsense on side bars—need some help please

I tried several times—I go to appearance, then widgets…afterwhich I choose text and paste the codes from google.

I hope somebody could help…I know this could really be simple…I think there is just something that I am not doing correctly.

Thanks a million in advance to those who would reply.

wordpress.COM blogs can’t use adsense

If you are talking about a blog hosted here on worpdress.COM, such as this one, http://thealternativepinoy.wordpress.com/ , then adsense – is not allowed. In fact, advertising in general is not allowed.

There’s also this, from the tag cloud for the forums:

No advertising? That means I’m stuck with a garage full of Vege-O-Matics.

Bye the time you retire, WP.com will allow eBay, and you can make a billion dollars. A million billion.

sensuouscurmudgeon,
Mod podge ’em and sell them as “art” on your site?

Good idea, tess — and those etsy badges are allowed for stuff like that, right?

@1tess “mod podge”? I haven’t heard that particular expression mentioned in about 30 years. It’s “decoupage” now, thankyouverymuch, thanks to the hoity-toity and la DE dah, not the hoi polloi! (No more coffee for me today!)

I was trying to decide between macrame and mod podge.
Apparently they still sell it:

I, on the other hand, recall very clearly being involved in something 30 years ago called “decoupage.”
Modpodge, which is basically nothing more than acrylic in a new label, is a newer, commercial version of the “art” which dates to the Sixties, but whose main thrust of popularity occurred about ten years ago, before Martha Stewart really brought snobbery to bear on such matters.

The art of decoupage goes back a couple centuries in Europe. Everything old is new again. Just easier.

No, it’s more or less the same, just branded. Given the fact it’s called “decoupage” I simply assumed it went back to the time France was a global superpower, which was SOME time ago.

The silly question seems to be getting some silly responses. :)

France still has great food. And ponies.

But not decoupaged Vege-O-Matics. The market there is wide open.

What good is a decoupaged Vege-O-Matic? Each one in my garage slices. And dices! If only we were allowed to post ads. It’s so unfair!
