Hi there people more technically able than me! Can anyone tell me how to add a badge to my blog? I have been sent two “badges” from companies which have promoted my blog on their website and they have sent me images to add as a badge. I’ve seen other WP blogs with this on so I know it can be done. Thank you very much in advance :)

The blog I need help with is joblogsjobakes.wordpress.com.

Provided these badges are not advertising, iframes, or Javascript you simply copy and paste the code provided from the source into a text widget and display the badges in your sidebar.

I’ve been sent this link so that I can put a badge on my sidebar but I can’t get it to work in an image widget. <img style=”border:0;” src=”http://writerscentre.com.au/bloggingcomp/images/BB2013-PCA-vote.png”>

Do I need all of this text?

All you need to put in the image widget is http://writerscentre.com.au/bloggingcomp/images/BB2013-PCA-vote.png, not the rest. The rest is to make it display in a text widget.
