  Hi there, this code doesn’t look complete:

  <!--BEGIN LOOKS WIDGET--><div id="lb_looks_widget_1371472393"></div><!--END LOOKS WIDGET-->

  It’s possible that WordPress.com is stripping out part of the code if it’s a type we don’t allow. Feel free to paste the full code in a Pastebin and provide a link here, and I’ll be glad to have a look.

  Thanks for this! If you look at those tags, you’ll see the word “script” – that means the code is something called JavaScript, which we don’t allow to be added on WordPress.com.

  You might want to find out from Lookbook if they provide a plain image banner instead which links to an external page, which doesn’t include any JavaScript.

  Just let me know if you need further help.
