Is there a video tuturial on Treehouse that deals with the creation of an actual widget with, say an image uploader fild, dropdown menus and custom text fields? I would appreciate if anyone can help.

Hi Ulises,

There is a How to Create WordPress Widgets section within the How to Build a WordPress Plugin course.

Hope that helps as a starting point :)
