   I am trying to place the view my LinkedIn profile badge on my blog. I thought I had found a plugin that does this but i can not get it to upload in my plug in area on wordpress. (i have uploaded twice in my FTP but it will not appear in my plugin area) Any suggestions?
   Thank you!

   Sarah;

   Did you figure this out yet? I would like to know where to paste the LinkedIn code in my theme (Elegance) so that it shows up in my sidebar in a specific place.

   The LinkedIn Badge is not so hard to be inserted into your blog.

   You may either embed the code into your theme's template (but if you'll change the theme, bye-bye badge...) or add it on the widget wall, into a new free text/html container/widget of your sidebar. I vote for this one!

   The html code is provided at LinkedIn's profile page. Just Copy/Paste.

   If you'd like to find it there (it could be hard, 'cause it's somehow... well, let's say 'not so obvious' to spot it), you may check this step-by-step brief tutorial here: Linkedin Badge -- Where To Find It

   How do you add it to the widget wall? I have the code in my sidebar and the badge shows up, but it is aligned just outside and left of the right sidebar.

   I am sorry I answered so late, but something happened to my business that kept me away for a while...

   I have done the Tutorial Video - How To Add a LinkedIn Badge to Your Blog as promised.
   I have put it both on my blog, but you may find it also here, where you can download a high resolution video series on '7Sins of a LinkedIn Profile', highlighting other LinkedIn tips & tricks, too.
