It depends what you want to do…
Do you want to add a static image or featured images that point to related posts ?
Just two or three static logos which are images if possible.
So, it’s so simple !
– In WordPress, Go to “Appearances” then “Widget”.
– In the Widget page, just Drag/Drop a “Text” Widget in your side bar
as you can see here
– The harder to do now, is to add some HTML text in the box that contains the 3 images.
as you can see here (for example)
Each image must be added like this :
<img src="http://doonie.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/example1.jpg" width="150px" height="100px">
Its mandatory to put the dimension of the image with the width and height.
I’ve tried doing that with the following image
<img src="http://www.doonie.co.uk/wp-content/images/goodsurgeonguide-badge-180.gif" width="180" height="131" />
but no joy. I’ve put it in a text widget but it is a gif – shall I save it as a jpeg? Can’t thank you enough for all your help. Such a ridiculously simple thing can take FOREVER!!!
There is no image at http://www.doonie.co.uk/wp-content/images/goodsurgeonguide-badge-180.gif
But if you put the image in http://www.doonie.co.uk/wp-content/images/goodsurgeonguide-badge-180.gif, leave as gif
and put this into the Widget box :
<img src="http://www.doonie.co.uk/wp-content/images/goodsurgeonguide-badge-180.gif" width="180" height="131">
Still no joy. I’ll try another one and see what on earth I’m doing wrong. Many thanks.
Both images flash very briefly with a x in the top left hand corner and then disappear.
Before I throw the computer out of the window and take 10 mins to calm down(!), do you have any ideas as to how you take off ‘powered by WordPress’ at the bottom of the site and how you can make the distance between the main title image and the headings in each page not so large. I’ve looked at the CSS but I’m somewhat nervous as to exactly where it is.

Ive managed to get the images up – phew although one of them is a little blurry so just trying to sort that out. Thank you so much for all your help.
