Want to know how to make these Social Networking Icons?!
Well, here’s my personal tutorial video all about how! Oh & you can have these buttons if you would like them! It’s the same rules as last week, you can change the colors, make them smaller, give them away, but you can NOT sell them. They are for personal use & enjoyment only!
To view it bigger on YouTube Click Here
Right click on your mouse. Choose the Save as Image. Upload them to a photobucket account (it’s a freeaccount.) Click on the “copy HTML†part that is underneath the button.
Go to “Add HTML/Javascript†gadget in blogger (in WP click on Text in your widgets section.)
Paste the HTML code into the gadget box. Then click on “Rich Text.â€
Click on the image. Then click on the link image like you would in a post. A box will pop up & then put in your links to facebook, twitter, & email. (You can make them bigger or smaller here too. But I don’t suggest making them bigger because that will make them look grainy.)
To link it to your WordPress.org blog, follow these steps:
Right click on your mouse. Choose the Save as Image. Upload them to your Media Library.
Find the section that says “File URL.”
Copy that section & place it in the bolded section of the code below:
<a href=”HTTP://WWW.LINK URL GOES HERE” title=”Mommy Monologues” target=”_blank”><img src=”FILE URL GOES HERE” border=”0″ alt=”Mommy Monologues Pinterest”></a>
For email type in:
mailto: youremailaddress
Click save & voila! You have Social Networking Icons made by YOU!
