  I wish to accomplish something like this guy, http://www.cinexcellence.com has under his podcast section on the sidebar. I’ve read the faq’s on the subject and it just doesn’t seem to be working. Can any of you guys help me?

  When you add or edit a link there is an option to set an image.

  I tried that, to do set an image in the links, but it doesn’t seem to work.

  @tumelex-sending someone off to see your blog doesn’t explain how you did it.

  @connormcintyre-What is it you want to do?
  A. display an image instead of a text link in the blogroll or
  B. just display an image in your blog’s sidebar.

  If it’s A. then
  http://faq.wordpress.com/2005/10/27/how-can-i-post-buttons-and-images-links-in-my-sidebar/go

  In your Dashboard>Manage>Links and edit the Link. At the bottom of the Edit Link page under Advanced you’ll find the place to paste the image URL (either copied from your Media Library or offsite image link-if permitted). Make sure you save the change.

  If it’s B then
  http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/10/18/put-an-image-in-your-sidebar/

  Again, make sure you save your changes.

  There is an image area in the manage links setting. Down under advanced is where you put the image address. (The FAQ entry http://faq.wordpress.com/2005/10/27/how-can-i-post-buttons-and-images-links-in-my-sidebar/ is not clear on this.)
