Now for the last part. Making it unique.
There are a few things you can do.
1. set up text
2. separate text
3. adding graphics
3. separate tables
1. SETTING UP THE TEXT
In the basic sidebar the text is black links
are blue and visited links are red. You can
change these to match your
background.
You may want to move the text to the center.
You may do this by using the <center> tag
after
the <td> tag. It would look like this...

I have also added extra spaces between the
links. Changing the text size is also an
option. Do this by adding a font size=#
after the <td> tag. There are many
other
things you can do such as bolding the links.
2.SEPARATING THE TEXT
The most common ways are to use spaces or a
line. The line can be done by using a
<hr> tag
after each link. Here is what lines
added
would look like...

Another way is to add an image of a line
after each link. Don't forget to make
it a
width of no more then 95. Here is what that
would look like...

That brings us right into-
3. ADDING GRAPHICS
You can get pretty creative placing graphics
into your sidebar. One way is to have
buttons infront of each text. I used a width
of 45 for each image. I dont recomend a
width larger then that, unless you have a
larger sidebar %. This is what it would look
like...

You can also use grahics as text by replacing
the text with the image. I used a width of
95 for each image. I dont recomend a width
larger then that, unless you have a larger
sidebar %. This is what it looks like...
The last, but not least suggestion I have for
spiffing up your sidebar is-
SEPARATE TABLES
Using different tables or cell blocks
within the sidebar.
This is good if you want to make it several
colors, add more then one background, or just
add an effect. I'm not going to get too much
into tables. For more info on them, please
see my help page. I will give you a basic
set up though. This is separate cell
blocks...
