  Hi there,
  I’m trying to add delicious as one of the sharing services beneath my blog posts, and I can’t get the delicious icon to appear. I went to “Settings,” “Sharing,” clicked on “Add a new service,” put in the URL and the icon URL (I used http://sharedcopy.com/images/callback-icons/delicious-icon-big.png). However, the delicious icon will not appear. Would appreciate your help!
  Thank you,
  Aaron

  Well, the actual code is working okay. I believe the problem lies with the image: for one thing, it’s too big. Can you save it to your computer, shrink it down to proper size, and then upload it to WordPress.com and use THAT URL?

  @rain: Correct. When you click “Add a new service” in Settings>Sharing, the popup says “Enter the URL of a 16x16px icon”.

  Thanks for the replies! I’m still having difficulty. I used a url for 16px icon, but I still can’t get the picture to load. Here’s what I’m using: http://www.iconarchive.com/icons/fasticon/social-bookmark/16/delicious-icon.png

  Is there a better url I should use for this icon picture?

  Thanks much!

  Aaron
