bhollandI am trying to put images onto my sidebar by adding them into a text widget. After I put the text widget into my sidebar, how do I add the image's URL??

You use img scr to put an image in your sidebar, and link it directly to the file location. (ie. the WordPress/Flickr url).
The code you want to use should look something like this:
<img src="http://yourimageurlhere.jpg" alt="Alt Text here" />

CJ, It will not work for me. I have tried everything!
<img src="http:///public_html/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/dpatdesk070822.jpg" alt="Smile!" />
How it came off my server, then replaced the Underscore with a dot/period in the public_html folder. (See Below.)
<img src="http:///public.html/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/dpatdesk070822.jpg" alt="Smile!" />
The "Smile!" shows, but no .jpg :-?TIA, DP

Is your blog here at wordpress.com or are you self-hosted (downloaded the wordpress software from wordpress.org)? The reason I ask is you mention a public_html folder and also in your link there is "wp-content". Those are both indications of a self-hosted blog.
If you are self-hosted, you need to be asking your question over at http://wordpress.org/forum instead as we use different software here.

CJ, I deleted the extra "/". Did not see it until I "Sent Post"

did it both ways. Still no results!

thesacredpath asked if you have a blog URL hosted here at wordpress.com dpga10 as if you are not hosted here, you need to ask in the other forums at:
