    Quickest and easiest might be to use a text widget and just put in the code like you would on a regular web page. I do it all the time.

      Yep, that's what I would do.

      Just make sure your blog's theme supports widgets.

      Mine isn't and I had to do everything the hard way.

      This is what the code will look like that you'll want to paste in the text widget.

      ------Start Code---------

      <p align="center">
      <a target="_blank" href="http://youraffiliatelink.com">
      <img src="http://yourimageurl.com" border="0"></a></p>

      --------End Code--------

      Hope this helps

          You're probably right, but I'd rather not spend too much time trying to figure it out.

          The theme I used was the only one I liked at the time, so I just dealt with it and customized it as much as I could.

          Maybe I'll start looking for a new theme soon.

          It's funny, I haven't posted to my blog in almost a year!!

          Maybe I should post something on there soon too. LOL

            I like this theme

            Hybrid has lots of widget applications besides the sidebar that is useful before and after content, pages, etc.

            I know what you mean, some things that are suppose to be easy and simple can end up sucking your time. Actually from what I remember, it was just adding a line to to a couple files, but if your looking for a new theme anyways.

            Your not the only one that doesn't post to their blog, geezz.. I get fired up for a few days, then get sidetracked and before I know it, it's been way too long since the last post.
