add image on left column

I want to add a simple gif to the left column. it will not rotate or do anything. What is the best way? Add it directly to the template?

thanks

Re: add image on left column

If you're just wanting a background image, the best way to do that is with your stylesheet.css in includes/templates/YOUR_CUSTOM_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet.css

Find this section of code (ALONE. If you don't have it by itself, then add it), and modify it to look like:

#navColumnOne {
    background-image: URL(../images/your_image.gif);
    }

Hope this helps.
