  Hi,

  I want to display an image in the sidebar of my blog, using the image widget. I’ve uploaded the image to a Picasa web album, filled in the information the widget requires, but only the alternative text shows. The direct link to the image is:

  http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/ENRbolwX1nk1FdmbZSbl7g?feat=directlink

  The widget title in the sidebar is “My favorite fantasy RPG.”

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The image widget only works with images hosted at WordPress.com. You can use the Text widget to display other images, but you’ll have to put in the code by hand.
