RSS button
-
I want to add the RSS feed button to my blog.
This support article was half way there: http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/10/23/put-your-feed-in-your-sidebar/
However I still do not know how to get the actual icon for the RSS to appear in the blog. In the above referenced support article it says to put the image code as <img src=”image-location” />
1. Where do I find the image source location? Do I need to host the image myself onto a website?
2. Is there a connection for an image via WordPress already?Many thanks in advance for assistance!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Is this the blog you are talking about http://theuserexperience.wordpress.com/ ?
The images are right in that FAQ and right next to the images shown. As an example, the medium sized orange one is http://faq.files.wordpress.com/2006/11/c28.png . Put that URL into the img src section and then the URL of your feed in the href section.

Thank you for the reply
Well that sort of worked! I now have the image…but 2 things now happen…
1. When you click on the Icon it gives an error message
2. There is a line between the Header and the body/image of the RSS….is it possible to get the image above or on the same line?Thanks again!

1. You have an extra quote mark at the end of the feed URL (href).
2. The line you see is the line put under the titles of all text widgets. You can delete the title from that text widget and then put your text before the code in the body of the widget if you wish. If you do that, between the text and the code for the icon, put the following break code (note the space between the r and / ).

Woot!!!! That was it!!! Talk about a fresh set of eyes to see something like the extra quotes. Would you mind testing it yourself? It works from my end but I would like to be sure!
Thanks!
