I am very new to wordpress's Thesis theme. I have a website that has the 3 column layout with a sidebar on the left and right sides of the content panel. I have a jpg banner that I want to put on the right side (Sidebar 2) of my website and have it be able to be clicked on to send them to my sales page. How can I do this in Thesis? I guess, I don't know how to make it a clickable object as well as how to do it in thesis altogether. With "features, Teasers and a multimedia box" I don't know what to use to get this done.

Secondly, I assume to have my op-tin box on the right side (Sidebar 2) as well I would just use a "text" widget and paste in the code?

Anyone with good knowledge of Thesis, can you please explain this to me?

    Just put the code in a widget text box, click save, and it will work fine. The same for your opt-in box... just use a widget text box and put your code in it and save it.

    Thank you, but right now all I have is a jpg file for the banner. How do I convert that into "code" with it being clickable? I know its a very basic question, but usually I build things with xsitepro that does all that converting behind the scenes.

    Yes, sorry, I should have been more detailed with my response.

    Upload your banner to a location on your website. Usually somewhere like wp-content > themes > NAME OF THEME > images.

    Then use the code provided earlier and use the entire URL to the banner within the "src" tag.

    Alternatively, I suggest uploading the image to a directory called "images" which should reside in the root of the domain. This way, if you ever change themes, the banner is still in the same place no matter what.

    Ok, can someone please look at this "test" site I have. Its my "practice" website that I am learning the Thesis Theme on. That way I don't mess up my money sites until I know what I'm doing. There are three things I'm trying to figure out. The website is omahamobileoffers dot com

    1) On the right side, under the opt-in form there are 36 pixels of white space in between the two sidebar widgets. How do I change that to either zero or maybe 5 pixels instead of so much?

    2) On the same side, sidebar 2, the first widget (opt-in form code) has about 22 pixels lower than on the left side, sidebar 1. How do I set them up so both sidebars start at the same level?

    3) For this I may have to PM you the code to fix this, but if you look at the opt-in box there is about 10 pixels of white space above the aweber code. I don't know enough about HTML code, but how do I change that so it meets up to the green and there is no blank white space?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Also, where in the Thesis theme can I install Google analytics?

    Thank you,
