   Hello. I am trying to paste the following code into the text widget:

   <img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://c.gigcount.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bT*xJmx*PTEzMTQ3NDUzMzEzOTAmcHQ9MTMxNDc*NTMzNTQ2OCZwPTI3MDgxJmQ9cHJvX3BsYXllcl9maXJzdF9nZW4mZz*xJm89/NGM3ZTg3ZTE*ZmM*NDI4MThmNDA3NGFiZjVkOTQ2MTQmb2Y9MA==.gif" /><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="262" height="200"><param name="movie" value="http://cache.reverbnation.com/widgets/swf/40/pro_widget.swf?id=artist_51544&posted_by=artist_51544&skin_id=PWAS1002&border_color=000000&auto_play=true&shuffle=false"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><param name="allowNetworking" value="all"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><param name="wmode" value="opaque"></param><param name="quality" value="best"></param><embed src="http://cache.reverbnation.com/widgets/swf/40/pro_widget.swf?id=artist_51544&posted_by=artist_51544&skin_id=PWAS1002&border_color=000000&auto_play=true&shuffle=false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowNetworking="all" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="opaque" quality="best" width="262" height="200"></embed></object>
   <img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://www.reverbnation.com/widgets/trk/40/artist_51544/artist_51544/t.gif" />

   in my right sidebar, but I believe it is being recognized as improper and stripped out. This is the same embed code I use on my website, http://www.jessicajohnson.net to embed a widget player for my music. I read on a help page to contact support if I felt like it was being stripped out improperly. Is this something WP can fix on the tech end? Thank you.

   Flash and all other embeds are not allowed in WordPress.com posts, pages, or text widgets. For security reasons, we remove the tags needed for these to work. Your intentions may be innocent, but someone somewhere might try to use such embeds to damage the site, affecting all of our users.

   You can convert the code to a gigya code:
