How to Add a Photo to TypePad Sidebar
TypePad is online blogging software developed and managed by Say Media. TypePad is similar to other blogging software, such as Wordpress and DasBlog, but TypePad is a premium service that requires a subscription. Like most blogging tools, TypePad includes a website sidebar. You can add a number of widgets, also called modules, to this sidebar. If you want to dress up your sidebar by adding an image, you can do so using basic HTML.
