Adding a photo to sidebar

Yes, add a new text widgit to your sidebar.
Upload the picture you want into your wordpress gallery.
Make sure the size of the photo will fit into the sidebar. Say, like 180-200 pixels wide.
Copy the url to the picture.
Open your new text widgit from your dashboard.
Use the image html code around your url…
‘<img src=”YOUR URL HERE”
Accept changes to your widgit.
Close widgit.
Refresh your blog.
Your photo should be there. -

xtap59 seems to be having trouble getting the full code to post.
It is < img src=”your url here” > but omit the first and last spaces (leave the one between “img” and “src” -

I am trying to post an image award and do not know if I do it the same as above and how to get the url
-
@judicreations: Please be more specific. In a post or in the sidebar? Have you uploaded the image?
-
I would like to add an “award” image into the sidebar. To upload the pic do I use the WRITE and then upload it and save it? I have done that. I read the instrutions above to copy the url but I’m not sure what that would be either.
-
“copy the url to the picture” I don’t understand that part…what is the url of the picture..how do I determine that?
-
But there have been some recent changes in the uploader: the URL won’t automatically show up anymore unless you’ve set it so in Settings > Media > Default media links.
Go to your post editor, click Add an Image, click Media Library, click “Show” for the particular image, click “File URL” to get the URL.
