  Is there a way to make a “follow me on tumblr” button on the sidebar? Tumblr has embedding code on their site but when I put it in a text widget it all just disappears, I guess because it’s iframe? Just wondering if there’s a work around

  Hi there,
  Any button or badge is simply an image that you link to. You can capture an image and upload it, link to it and display it in a text widget.

  For creating links in a text widget see:

  NOTE http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/text-widget/#adding-an-image

  You can upload image files by clicking the Add Media button right above the editing area of a page or a post. http://en.support.wordpress.com/add-media/

  You can also upload new files to your Media Library using Media → Add New. http://support.wordpress.com/media/media-add-new
