How do I insert a badge into my blog?

If your badge is just a simple image that links elsewhere, just go to Look & Feel > Graffiti and paste the badge's code in your Graffiti section. It will appear as part of your Graffiti.

Here are a bunch of badges that are loads of fun and ready to go. To display them on your blog, just go to the indicated sites, copy the badges' code, and paste them into your Graffiti textbox:

If your badge contains javascript and does fancy things like pull photos and other content, it won't work if you paste the codes in your Graffiti section. (Graffiti likes things simple). But not to worry, there's always a way to get it done! We currently support 6 javascript badges:

To insert the badges into your blog, go to Look & Feel > Snippets > Badges and paste the badges' code into the indicated textbox. We've got the Alta Vista Translate badge's code ready to go, so to insert it, all you have to do is select the language your blog is in from the dropdown list provided.

Javascript badges are displayed as a snippet, so don't forget to activate your desired badge in your Snippets list – Otherwise it won't appear on your blog's sidebar.
