  Hi;

  Is there a way to add a photo to a text box widget to go in the right sidebar? I have a photo used as an Avatar and I wish to use the same image in a textbox widget – is this possible, what other options are available. This is a corporate blog by our CEO and he would like his photo

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Please paste the exact URL of the blog in question when asking questions here. We usually need that to give a relevant answer.

  Assuming you’re talking about a wp.COM blog, you upload the image in the media library, get its URL and paste it in a text widget this way:
  <img src="URL_HERE"></a>

  If it’s wider than the sidebar, you can scale it down this way:
  <img src="URL_HERE" width="160px"></a>
  (160 is an example; proper number depends on the theme.)
