  I have an image on my Flickr account that I want to put as a badge on my left sidebar. I’ve tried pasting the flickr code into a text widget but although I save it and close when I visit my blog site it’s not there. I’ve managed to first duplicate someone else’s badge that I had posted, then entirely delete that one too. And also I want others to be able to use the badge on their blogs if they want to. Help!

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

  Thanks, dreamsburned! I just tried that and changed the number of photos to 1 instead of 3 and copied the URL BUT when I looked at my blogsite I have a neat little badge that sez “MORE PHOTOS” not the actual image I’m trying to post. Thoughts, anyone?
