   I am trying to hardcode in images to use as advertisements and placeholders and they are not showing up.

   You can see this at http://www.bhmbride.com/

   I added the following code to the second line of sidebar.php

   <div id="spindle">
           <li><a href="http://www.spindlephotography.com"><img alt="Spindle Photography" src="http://www.bhmbride.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/spindle.jpg</a></li>
    </div>
   <div id="advertise">
           <li><a href="http://www.bhambride.com"><img alt="Advertise with Bham Bride" src="http://www.bhmbride.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/advertise.jpg</a></li>
    </div>

   And the rest of my sidebar.php look like this:

   In both image cases you forgot to add the " /> to close the image tag... should be like this:
   

   <div id="spindle">
           <li><a href="http://www.spindlephotography.com"><img alt="Spindle Photography" src="http://www.bhmbride.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/spindle.jpg" /></a></li>
    </div>
   <div id="advertise">
           <li><a href="http://www.bhambride.com"><img alt="Advertise with Bham Bride" src="http://www.bhmbride.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/advertise.jpg" /></a></li>
    </div>

   It's working for the Spindle image... for the other image, it is a blank image (http://www.bhmbride.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/advertise.jpg)
