  I have two categories in Links. How can I separate these links and show them in two different places in sidebar? I want the LinkedIn category under my Gravatar and the Blogroll category lower in the column.

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

  Since there’s only one link in your LinkedIn category, delete it from your links and add it in a Text widget.

  If I use the Text widget and add the link it is not a hot link. http://www.linkedin.com/in/mikehartcxo

  <a href="WEBPAGE_URL_HERE"><img class="aligncenter" src="IMAGE_URL_HERE" /></a>

  If the image is too wide, it may need downsizing; in that case:
  <a href="WEBPAGE_URL_HERE"><img class="aligncenter" src="IMAGE_URL_HERE" width="NUMBER_HEREpx /></a>

  Or you can use the Image widget, in which you’ll just paste the URLs and select the alignment, possibly also type desired width.
