    Where exactly do I upload the StumbleUpon icon image to? Which directory? Is it the same folder that the single.php file is in? Because nothing seems to work to get the icon to display.

    Thanks

    This is a good idea. I actually used the ‘AddToAny’ plugin for wordpress then you get stumbleupon, facebook, and 10 other social bookmark sites from one small bar.
