HI. Oh forgive my stupidity. I assume you've typed in your blurb already and or set up your sidebar linklists and nothing shows up, right? Make sure the 'Show blurb in sidebar' and/or the 'Show the link list in the sidebar?' dropdown is on 'yes' in this (http://www.livejournal.com/customize/options.bml?group=sidebar) section.

please ignore me if you know this already, i hate telling people what they already know, honestly. :D
