The problems seems to be the padding.

<center><img src="http://conservationfinance.wordpress.com/files/2006/06/frog.jpg" alt="Dendrobater azureus" /></center>

edit: Actually I just read your CSS file for that theme. Says to use 'class="centered"' so you may want to try this instead:

<div class="centered"><img src="http://conservationfinance.wordpress.com/files/2006/06/frog.jpg" alt="Dendrobater azureus" /></div>

I do note that some of the sidebar padding is offcenter (ie rightside is 8pixels while the left is only 4pixels) so you might be stuck with it like that but I would try the suggestions above.

Good luck,

I'm glad somebody found my explaination useful. Now, I'm going to delete that draft :-)

Pictures in posts, sure, but blogheaders or sidebars... I hadn't been able to find that in the FAQ, at least not as clearly as this.

So, good post nonetheless, thanks.

You also don't have to save the post, even as a draft. You can even delete it.

Thanks though,

Look at my blog for the example: http://compartments.wordpress.com. I posted my photo in the sidebar using a text widget. Here's how:

1. Create a new post and upload a photo (see FAQs about uploading photos into your posts). Click on the "html" button on your post editing tool bar. Highlight the html between <img src="......"... /> and copy it. Save that post as a draft. Do not publish it.

2. Go to the "Presentation" tab and select "Sidebar Widgets." Move a "Text" widget over to the right hand column and open it. Paste the url that you just copied from the "Write Post" section. Write some text too, if you want. Then save it and view your site. Wallah!
