  Hi @ckhl,

  Do you mean the ‘About Me’ sidebar that is shown in the Floral Theme’s example page?

  If so, it looks like they added an image widget to their sidebar (and this can be done with any theme, not just Floral!).

  To do this, first upload the photo you want to use for your About Me section to your Media library, and copy the URL to that photo.

  Next, go to My Sites -> Customize -> Widgets -> Sidebar and click on the button that says “Add Widget.” Choose “Image Widget” and enter the title (‘About Me’), then paste in the link of the image you’d like to use.

  Here is a more comprehensive guide for setting up an image widget:

  I hope that helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions!

  Whoops, tagged the wrong blog. The one I wanted to check on was for my offruitsandfitness.wordpress.com blog.

  Anyway, I managed to solve it. Thanks for your help!
