 * I want to connect a button in my sidebar to a page on my blog. The button has
   been made using xara-x1. The hyperlinks in the button work on the xara preview,
   but not on the blog, however the .gif image appears on the blog, just no linking.
   Where can I go to find some code to do this? Can anybody tell me how to do this?

 * Not without seeing the code you’re trying to use (post to [http://wordpress.pastebin.ca/](http://wordpress.pastebin.ca/)
   and then post back here with the link) and a link to the site in question.

 * OK so what I’m doing is creating a text widget and posting just this code into
   that (because it’s small I’ll post it here):
 * `<IMG SRC="GOATAVATAR.gif" ALT="Girls Only! click here">`
 * then putting the .gif directly into the main wp folder.
 * I know I need something else, but not having much knowledge yet I’m not sure 
   what goes next…

 * Maybe
    `<a href="YOUR LINK TO THE SITE"><img src="goatavatar.gif" alt="Girls 
   Only! Click here" /></a>` ?
