  How do I add a photo w/ text in my sidebar? Can I create a link from the photo?

  This should help: http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/10/18/put-an-image-in-your-sidebar/

  Typically what I do is to start a draft post and put everything into the post and format it as I want it, then I switch to the HTML tab, copy everything in that screen, then go to the text widget and paste it in.

  Watch the size of the image you use, I recommend thumbnail since the sidebar width is limited (width depends on theme) and putting an image in there that is too wide can break your theme and cause things to get all wonky.
