If so, this has been discussed a fair bit in the WordPress.org support forums (I linked directly to the appropriate tag). Hope that helps.

Maybe I am nmissing something but it appears widgets as they are don’t allow me this ability.

Is it possible to put different widgets on different sidebars???

That way I wouldn’t have to have the same thing on all 10,000 pages of my site :’>

However, adding images and buttons is doable and featured in the video I put together on the text widget. We’re looking to expand the range of options available for WordPress.com widgets in the not too distant future

Alas, what I needed wasn’t mentioned. I have been trying to add photos and cute little buttons and doo-dads into my sidebars. I look at other bloggers and they have all sorts of colorful things added, alas no such luck for me. I have tried to follow various instructions that are scattered through wordpress. No luck. I have gone to other sites that offer widgets, copied their templates, pasted it into the widget called TEXT, and still….it doesn’t work.

How do I add photos, buttons and colorful doo-dad widgets into my sidebars?

This widget-handling scheme costs me way too much time. I hate it.
