HELP with Wordpress Sidebar Widgets Plug-in

Could you guys take a look at my site and let me know if my theme is Widget friendly?

I cannot seem to get the Sidebar Widgets Plug-In working and I desperately need it!!

Thanks!

 

Hi

Looks like your using the pool theme. Could be wrong but dont believe it is widget ready.

If you could confirm the theme & email it to me I'll have a look for you

It is the Pool Theme.

If it is not widget ready - what is the best way to go about transferring my theme to something similar that is widget ready?

 

Does anyone know how I can change this code to make my sidebar widget ready? This is the current code:

<!-- begin sidebar -->

<div id="sidebar">

<div align="center"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/arsenalfcblog"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~fc/arsenalfcblog?bg=A62529&amp;fg=FFFFFF&amp;anim=0" height="26" width="88" style="border:0" alt="" /></a>

google_ad_type = "text";
google_ad_channel = "";
