Okay I have figured out how to get myself a twitter badge for my blog, and obviously BetterNetworker made it very easy to get a badge from their site, but how can I get myself a MySpace and FaceBook badge for my blog? I found the one on the Facebook Profile page that shows your picture but I was looking for one without a picture just the logo on it or maybe something else. Any help is appreciated. Thank You

Aerion,
A back door way to do it would be as such...

1. Find the image on Google Images.
2. Save and re-size it to meet your needs (any photo editor).
3. Add the image in the source code of your web page.
4. Add a link to the image code.

This is how I did it. A little makeshift, but it works.

If you don't have source code access, there should
be a function in your blog to add links to images.

If you want to see my "badges" in action, check out

I put my badge bar on the bottom of every single page on my site.

Josh, I got step 1 and 2 and then got completely lost on 3 & 4. Are there any tutorials out there on adding an image in source code? I tried to read up on it but nothing so far. I was using the text widget on my sidebar to add the code for my social badges if that helps any.

If you can't upload the pic directly from your desktop,
you will need to get it on the internet via photobucket
so it has a specific URL. Then use this code in the HTML
snippet section...

<a href="http://www.YourSocialNetwork.com" target="_new">
<img src="http://www.YourImageURL.com/somenumbers"
alt="Your Social Network Name" border="0" height="60" width="60" />

It has to be in the source code, or the "HTML" portion of your page.

When you upload a pic to photobucket, it gets a URL link that you can
use for the "img src". Change all the text above to match whatever you
are trying to do, obviously.

Height and width are adjustable as well.

You only need to paste this code in if you can't upload linkable images
directly to your blog. Hope this helps.
