Top right of what?

You could create an image for the custom header with the logo to the right.

Or maybe an image widget:

Hi..this is the closest place I could fine re my problem. I am trying to put a Blog of the Year award on my site… I followed all the procedure..1. copying url logo from library. Going to widget Blog of the year which I had already 2 stars but now wanting to put the 3 star logo… 2. put in the necessary info which is what I’ve always done and it’s been okay.
<img src=”inserted the url copied from library..then put in the rest ” width-“180” /> and then I hit Save ..this is the problem..after I hit save the > is replaced with &and gt (appears &gt) and so the logo does not appear..Why is the &gt coming up after I hit Save I’d appreciate any help you could give….Diane

This thread is about placing an image in a header., It’s not about placing the code for an award badge in a text widget. Please just post the whole badge code here between backticks so we can cut to the chase.
The backtick ` not to be confused with the single quote mark ‘ is located to the left of the number 1 key in lower case under the tilde ~ on your keyboard.

I copied and posted that last code you posted above into a text widget on my test blog and it displayed without any problem at all.

did you use the backtick? because I’ve never had to do that? I’ll try with it…Diane

No! The backticks are only used here so the code will display in forum threads.

Hi: I just followed the image widget directions. I uploaded facebook and twitter images to my library, but they’re not showing up on the sidebar. I just get two question marks in the blue boxes. (They do link to my twitter and fb pages, however.) How do I get them up and how can I get these logos in my Gridspace header without using code? I haven’t learned it yet.
