I added mine to that side column no problem. ^^
Code:
<div id="sidebar_container">
<!-- sidebar -->
$template_hook[profile_right_first]
$blocks[stats_mini]
$blocks[youtube]
$blocks[gifts]
$template_hook[profile_right_mini]
$blocks[friends_mini]
$blocks[albums]
$template_hook[profile_right_album]
$blocks[groups]
$blocks[visitors]
$template_hook[profile_right_last]
<!-- / sidebar -->
I had to reduce the number of gifts shown to 3 per row, 2 rows to make it fit properly. Ive experimented putting it in different places but I fiund the side column was the best place for my layout. The lovely thing about those blocks is you can rearrange them however you want pretty easily.
