Help adding things to sidebar?


This is my layout  visualwit.dreamwidth.org/10124.html by visualwit

Is it possible to add things to the sidebar? I want to add a feedjit

http://feedjit.com/freeLiveTrafficFeed/#getOther

but I can't seem to add it in. I tried to follow their instructions but it didn't work:

1. You are going to install Feedjit in your blog's sidebar so that it loads on every page. To do this you need to edit your blog template. Read your blog host's documentation on how to edit your sidebar template.
2. When you are ready, sign-in to your blog and edit the template for your blog side-bar.
3. Look at the structure of the other elements in your side-bar. Often they will be contained in
  •  
or tags.
4. Create a new pair of container elements in your blog's sidebar HTML e.g.
  •  
and paste the code above between those elements.
5. Save your blog's sidebar template, hit your blog home page and you should see Feedjit appear in your side-bar.

Back to customization

I tired adding it to the text module and that didn't work either.

Can you help me please?

Could I add a photo or gif into the side bar? How can I do this?

Thanks

Question re: footers and adding images

Apologies if this has been asked here before, I looked through the community and didn't see it.

I have a small-ish image that I would like to add to the footer of my journal. I am aware that custom text supports HTML for images, however, I am already using the custom text space for an image. So, can someone provide me with the CSS to plug in to put the image URL in the footer? My current layout is Brittle, if it matters. Thanks! ^__^
