Hey all,
I'm trying to figure out a way get an ad to be inserted in an existing widget.
As an example, see where it says Recent Topics in the sidebar? I want it so its halved and there's an Ad. So, instead of it being 300px wide, I want it to be 150px wide with an 150px wide ad right next to it.
Is it possible to do something like that? (Sorry for the poor description, sleep deprivation does that haha.)
Any help would be appreciated!

Yes of course it is possible. And I think the easiest way to do this is choosing a theme that already has 3 columns (one content and two sidebars). The sidebars are still located on the right side of the page. One particular theme that I know has this configuration is: lightword. But I'm sure there are many themes out there that has 3 columns configuration. If you already has 2 sidebars, then you can add some ads on one sidebar.
Using current theme and deviding its sidebar to two is also can be done. But it requires a little bit of HTML, CSS, and some PHP programming. But it's possible.

Thanks for the response! I did try the double sidebar idea, but it ended up looking a little weird with the way I have that image next to the slider
I was reluctant to post an example, cause I don't want it to seem like i'm stealing a design look, but it's the only example I could find, haha.
See how on http;//boygeniusreport.com when you scroll down to where it says Breaking News, and they have that widget sharing the same space in the one sidebar as the ad? I was trying to edit the widget's file, for say my recent comments, but I either wasn't doing anything or I was messing up things elsewhere on the page, haha.
