Accessing the Twitter Icons
1. Open a Web browser and log into Twitter with your username and password. This takes you to your Twitter homepage.

Adding a Plain Icon or Logo
4. Click the 'Download Twitter Logos Icons' link from the Resource page to add a plain Twitter icon or logo. These are image files without any HTML code.
5. Select any of the PNG files available. Note that EPS files are also available, but these are for graphic design and are not suitable for use on a blog or website. Right-click any PNG link to download it to your computer.
6. Log into your WordPress account.
7. Click the 'Media' link in the dashboard. Then click 'Add New.' Upload the PNG file to your WordPress media library.
