  Hi Cathy,

  I’m a bit confused as to the button that you mentioned. Are you talking about the Create Another Blog button as seen here:

  

  This can be found on this page: http://wordpress.com/my-blogs/

  If that’s not what you are talking about, please let me know and I can take a further look.

  Hi, yes, I can get the image up but I thought the idea was for it to link to my site if someone ‘grabbed the button’ Maybe I’m not grasping the point. Never mind, I’ve deleted it again.
  Thanks

  Hi Cathy,

  If you want an image in your sidebar that links to your site, you can do that by adding an image widget. Here are instructions on adding this here:
