  while the sidebar is limited to 250px wide I see no issue.

  The image widget doesn’t work well in the theme you’re using (for instance, note 2nd & 3rd images: narrow enough, but right border still missing). Add text widgets instead, and use this code:
  <img style="margin-bottom:8px;" src="URL_HERE" width="184" alt="DESCRIPTION_HERE"></a>

  Or make copies of your images, downsize them (using an image editing application) to a width of 184px and a resolution of 72, upload those copies, and use the above code without the width declaration. This way you get better quality too (images resized by WP lose some color and sharpness).

  @dreamsburnred: What does “while the sidebar is limited to 250px wide” mean?
