    You may find some basic html much more efficient. Assuming you are using a text widget to place your image/link in the sidebar;

    <a href="http://www.site_you_want_to_link_to.com" target="_blank"> <img src="http://yoursite.com/wp-content/uploads/yourimage.jpg"> </a>

    You can also style the appearance (margin, padding, alignment, etc...) of the image right in the text widget if you like, using run-of-the-mill inline styles of your choice.

    The image "src" should be edited to reflect the path to the actual image you need to use, of course.
