You add the links on your Dashboard, under Links. Then they show up in the appropriate place on your blog.

G’day Harry,
You can use either the Visual, or HTML editors to add Links. You enter Links on your Links page and assign categories to them. You then use the Links widget which displays those links in alphabetical order by categories in the sidebar for the use of your readers. If you need more help you can read here and also watch the video http://en.support.wordpress.com/blogroll/You may link to any site you wish. Many bloggers link to blogs and other sites that are directly related to the content found in their own blogs, so their Links (Blogroll) can function as a resource for their readers.

@raincoaster , if i add a link , under links then it will show up in my links list not my blogroll , i THINK i’m right
@timethief , i understand about the editors to add links to the pages , so am i right what i said in my 2nd post , i only want a few in the LINKS in the sidebar and the rest in the blogroll

The data the Links widgets uses to display is entered by yourself on your Links page. Every time you add a new link to that page the data in the widget will update and display the links(s) you add.
The Links widget does not have an option for drop down display. See the display options it does have here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/links-widget/

G’day Harry,
do you think i should remove the 2 rss links and the e-mail link , harry
No. Why do you ask?
Yes, you can create a header image of your own by using Photoshop / Paint Shop Pro or any other free desktop image editor to optimize or presize the image. See here for the software > http://en.support.wordpress.com/media/image-optimization/#image-editing-software
The best practice is to create an image of exactly the correct size so the cropping tool does not come into play. The size you need for Chaotic Soul is 760 pixels by 151 pixels. Also remember that the Chaotic Soul theme will have the black bar in the header – you cannot remove it. See here for instructions for uploading the header after you presize it > http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/custom-header-image/
