  Hi, I’d love to be able to change my Category view in the sidebar so it looks like the one at cupcakesandcashmere.com, with photos for each category (e.g. Outfits, Baking on hers..). Does this functionality exist for my blog, and if so how can I do it please?

  There isn’t a tool on WordPress.com that would automatically set up category links like that for you. However, you could achieve a similar look by using the Image Widget:

  You could manually add a link to your category pages by adding /category/[category-name]/ to the end of your blog URL.You would insert the actual category instead of the brackets.
