    I'm currently using the  Minimum Child Theme and I would like to change those icons that display when you link to your social links like -Twitter- Pinterest- Google+- Facebook, using your Featured1  Featured2  Featured3  Featured4 widgets. I would like to display my own icons in it's place how would I do this?

    I try to accessing the image folder in my   Minimum Child Theme file but I don't even see the social icons there. Thanks so much

    It's using something called "sprites" - http://demo.studiopress.com/minimum/wp-content/themes/minimum-two/images/icons.png. One PNG with multiple images on it. I don't know how to use them, but since those are widget areas, I am thinking you can just add your own using HTML code in a text box possibly.

    Yes But I don't know what codes to use to place them in a text box, I just wanted to replace then with other images.

    How large are you icons? Are they just as large as what's in the demo? If so, you can add a plugin that I use all the time called "Image Widget" - http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/image-widget/. I love this because I don't have the manually code images in Text. You can add the image along with a URL. Just remember... don't put a title in it unless you want one.

    Hello Anitac but with this plugging will i be able to change the current icons to my own and still have that mouse over effect?
    The icons are the same size because i did not change them.
