  When I save my widget image and go to my blog page, the photo is cropped and I can only see approximately one third of the photo. I assume it’s because of my image sizing. If so, what is the proper size for the image to show completely. Thanks, John

  The image width should be a value equal to or less than your theme’s sidebar. If you leave this empty, the widget will attempt to determine the original width of the image and use that, so that is why you were only seeing one third of the photo.

  Your sidebar (for the Twenty Ten theme) is 200px wide – so the image doesn’t need to be any wider than that. :)
