Connections does for example while Sapphire doesn't.

It's another one of those "Some theme designers do it while others don't" things. :)

The theme you have chosen is Blix. You already have a sidebar on the blog with your flickr picture at the top.

There is another thread on the forum that indicates there is a choice you can make with Blix as to leaving it in the default format or using widgets. http://wordpress.com/forums/topic.php?id=2744&replies=16

You have already entered your flickr photos in the sidebar so I assume you now want to use your other widgets. I'm going to try to give you a hand to get you started. My instructions may not be perfect but they will help you get started and drmike or a more experienced blogger can help you out if I'm not clear enoungh so here goes.

Dashboard -> Presentation - > Sidebar widgets

Go to the available widgets and choose the ones you want. Drag and drop them into the area called Sidebar one. Then click save.

I hope this is helpful. :)

I certainly hope both threads were not started by the same person. OOPS I guess they were.

aaronpaetz - you have started two threads on the same subject tonight. This is considered to be bad form, although I'm sure you didn't know that. The long and short of it is that the wordpress support forum is not a meet and greet forum. It is not at all like a chat room. It is strictly for support. That's why there are no photos on the profiles - what your look like, what your age is, what your race is, whether you are able bodied or disabled is of absolutely no sigificance here. Isn't that awesome?

We have an increasing number of LJ refugees who would love it.

And to have that picture come up with any comments that you make on other blogs...

What do you say WP? Can you hook that up for us?
