 * Great plugin! I was hoping to use the trick to prevent overwriting, as described
   in the “Other notes” section on the plugin page, but can’t get it to work.
 * I added a ‘view’ directory to my (Genesis child) theme directory, as well as 
   the ‘category-images-ii’ directory, then copied both required files, but no matter
   where I put them, they’re not being used. I tried putting them in the child theme’s
   root dir, as well as in ‘view’ and ‘category-images-ii’.
 * I also tried with a ‘widget-tracker’ directory in my ‘view’ without succes.
 * I have now made a few edits to the plugin’s files, but ofcourse would prefer 
   to do it the proper way.
 * Any suggestions?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Hi,
 * It sounds like my documentation is wrong, sorry. You want to be using this directory:`[
   your-theme]/view/twitter-tracker/`
 * Hope this helps.

 * You really only need to do this if you really _need_ to change the output of 
   the widget tweet contents. If you can make your changes with CSS, then do that…
   it’s much safer.
