Hi,
I would like to place an image in the right side bar, near the bottom (see picture). Ideally, I'd like it placed as shown in the picture, but I don't care about specifics. If it has a frame around it (ie, not flush with blue edge), that's ok. I know there are lots of ways to insert images (image module, CCK, etc), but how do I get it in that spot? In fact, while I can get images in the body of the site, I can't get any to show up in the side bar, especially at the bottom. What's the best approach? I don't want to try tons of modules or approaches before stumbling onto the right one.
Thank you so much for any help,
Phil
PS: I'm using the Marinelli theme.

Looks like the attached image did not work. I'll try again or look at: http://www.sense-a-temp.com/MySiteWish.jpg

I would put <div id="image_overlay"></div> inside the #page div in my page.tpl.php and then do the rest with css styling:

#image_overlay {
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 0px;
  right: -20px; /* because it has to overlap the border, adjust as needed */
  width: 200px; /* use the width and height of the image */
  height: 300px;
  background: url(my_image.jpg) no-repeat;
}

The image can simply be cut out of the design you already have, including the borders.

If you want to be able to control the image from the back-end, you can create a new region in div#image_overlay and assign the image to the region in the back end. This would also allow you to control on which pages the image needs to be shown.
