I just taught myself a very important skill and I want to share it with you. If you want to add a badge or photo or button there’s a couple of ways to do it.

The one I have inserted here is NOT clickable, but if you visit Hide A Heart Inspires Expression you will see the same badge and that one IS clickable and here’s how I did it!

First you need to have an account with Photobucket.com or other photo sharing site to generate a picture ‘code’
Second you must have a ‘snipping tool’ option available on your computer
Third you need an adventurous and ‘can do’ attitude

Adding a badge, button or picture to Blogger:

With a ‘snipping tool’ make a screen shot of your badge then save it in a file
Open YOUR page from the site you want to link to the badge
On your blog add a PICTURE gadget
Download the screen shot of your badge from the file in which you saved it
Be sure to add the URL address for YOUR badge page and save

Adding a badge, button or picture to a WordPress.com blog:

Upload the screen shot of your badge to Photobucket to get a picture code
Go to your WordPress blog and grab an IMAGE widget
Copy/Paste the DIRECT LINK code into the Image URL space
Copy/paste your page URL address into the space for URL link when clicking on image

This will do it. See mine here
