The HOP Logo for Wordpress Users- Updated- Now Without HTML Errors

Looking in our busy inboxes this morning we were hit upside the head by a hammer of pure awesome.  Mighty Thor himself took the time to write up instructions for you Wordpress users to add the HOP logo and link to your sites.

1. Right click the the logo for House of Paincakes and choose 'Save Image As...' or 'Save Picture As...' depending on your browser
2. In WordPress go to Media->Add New and choose the image you saved and upload it
3. Once uploaded copy the text in the field 'File URL'
4. Go to Appearance->Widgets and drag a text widget over to whichever sidebar you want the logo to show up in
5. In that text widget paste this in:

<a href="
http://www.houseofpaincakes.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><img src="file_url_you_copied" border="0"></a>

You'll want to change the 'file_url_you_copied' to actually be the file URL that you copied from step #3.

6. Click save and you're done


See, this is exactly what we're on about with this blog network.  Sharing and collaboration.  Thor saw a need and jumped in with a solution for all of you.

If you're feeling appreciative, you can head on over to Thor's blog, Creative Twilight and check his stuff out.   He's got a pretty robust collection of articles covering almost every aspect of 40k and some pretty good gaming introspection.

Glad to help out.

Just noticed, and probably my fault, but in the link code that you paste there's a space after the quote just before the http:// that you'll want to remove.

Thor, we fixed the space. Thanks again for throwing this out there.

I used an image widget, it works fine. I uploaded the image into my library, then copied and pasted the image url... then pasted the Paincakes link. Wordpress even shrunk the image file size when I squished it down to 150 x 150.
