  Hi Horty!
  
  1. I start Add New Post.
  
  2. I put “Visual” mode on.
  
  3. Then, I open “My Stats” in another tab.
  
  4. I copy the stats from the “My stats” pages which I want to be in my new blog post.
  
  5. I go to the Add New Post tab, to the place where I want the flags, figures etc. from the My Stats page to appear.
  
  6. I paste these stats from the clipboard into my new blog post.
  
  I think this should work for you 🙂

        If you have opened Add New Post, on the right, under the space for writing the title text, then there are two buttons: Visual and Text. You should choose Visual if you want to copy blog statistics items like flags etc. into your new blog post.

        Is this only as a post, or can you keep them on the main page like you can with the awards you receive?

        As far as I know, the way I do it, it is only as a post. There is some program which some bloggers have for displaying one’s visitor’s national flags on one’s main page; but so far I don’t know yet how it works 🙂

        That’s the one I want to do. Where you keep them on the blog like you do “community”.
        Will keep looking!!

Thank you Kitty. This is my first nomination for any award. It means a lot to me.
I am overwhelmed.
I will try following the the procedure you have outlined above.
And congratulations to you too.
I also wanted to ask, Should I put the award logo right away or am I supposed to wait for some kind of evaluation and further results to be declared.?

  Hi Pamela, thanks for your kind words!
  
  You deserve, and probably will get, more awards 🙂
  
  You don’t have to hurry with a blog post on this, as the award is for helping bloggers, not for hurrying them 🙂
  
  You don’t have to wait for any evaluation. As soon as you accept the nomination and write a blog post about it, you can put the award logo in that post. Also on your sidebar, as some bloggers do 🙂
