URL shows in sidebar- not photo- need help
-
I’m trying to put a photo in my sidebar, but the URL shows instead- not the photo. The photo title shows, but no photo. don’t know what I’m doing wrong.
Thanks for help. -
Do you have a link to your blog so we can see what you mean? It’s hard to tell if we can help if we can’t see it first.

Yeah, I thought I followed the directions in that link. Must have missed something. Here is my blog-

jk – the proper format is
‘
<img src=”http://kansascorner.files.wordpress.com/2008/01/my-pretty-girl-nissa.jpg” alt=”nissa” />
` -
hmm – that didn’t work
<img src="http://kansascorner.files.wordpress.com/2008/01/my-pretty-girl-nissa.jpg" alt="nissa" /> -
This code should do the trick. It needed img src tags before it, that’s what says it’s an image otherwise it’s just a link to the file. Simple to do.
<img src="http://kansascorner.files.wordpress.com/2008/01/my-pretty-girl-nissa.jpg" />One thing you might want to do, though, is make the image a bit smaller before you put it in your sidebar. At that size it might distort the blog. It’s easy to do with http://www.picnik.com/ and then you upload that picture to WordPress. Hope that helps.

Okay- I did it. And it worked! There is a photo in my sidebar! It is still kind of big- but I’ll work on that later. Thanks again.
