I copied and pasted a follow me button from twitter via html, but instead of a graphic, all I have is a "Follow @crossflix text" how do i make the graphic?

Is it that way on the live site or just when you preview?

actually both. i copied the html directly from the twitter site and on actual page and preview i only get text

Try putting the http: in the iframe code.

Thanks for your help so far, last question is how do i insert iframe?

Michael, the Twitter code snippet is already within an Iframe. You just copy/paste that whole block of code from the Twitter site. Then, on your page within the Twitter code, find your URL in the code and put http:// in front of the www.
I don't know why it's not in there to begin with, but you should see your Twitter button after you add it

I tried that and still nothing, this is the code that shows up, what should i put instead?:

<a href="https://twitter.com/crossflix" class="twitter-follow-button" data-show-count="false" data-size="large">Follow @crossflix</a>
<script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");</script>

This works for me.
