I am reading through this new online doc. How do we customize the widgets that you've created? For example, I want to add recent posts to the footer area using your widget, but I'd like to not have # of comments visual over the post
I don't think we will get comments on our posts, so I'd like to remove the overlaying numbers.
Two questions:
1. Can I customize how these widgets look in the footer area by removing things like those numbers, etc?
2. Can I create or add my own widgets? Like a link widget? Or should I just use the text widget and try to customize the appearance of my links by using shortcodes?
1. It depends what you want to customize Some things are hard and needs to rebuilt whole widget but some are easy. Removing comments number, you asked for are easy in this case and you can do it using below css:
.Recent_posts ul li .photo .c { display: none; }
2. We do not recommend to create own widgets if you don`t know how to do it. Instead we recommend to use "Text" widget and inside you can use html tags and text/raw shortcodes. But if you want to learn how to make own widgets, you should have a look on topics below:

Thank you for the suggestions for creating own widgets.
Where do I insert that css? Will it be in the same footer area? Do I add a text widget and type it there? Or is it something I put on the actual post?
Thanks!
