 * Hey,
 * Trying to remove the search bar on my site and replace it with a clickable twitter
   icon. Can get the search bar gone, but having a hell of a time getting the image
   code to work.

 * To remove the search form, edit header.php and delete the line `<?php get_search_form();?
   >` and try replacing it with:
 * `<a class="twitter_link" href="link_to_twitter_page"><img src="<?php bloginfo('
   template_directory'); ?>/images/twitter.png" width="xx" height="yy" alt="Visit
   us on Twitter" /></a>`
 * You’ll need to upload your image (twitter.png) to your theme’s images directory
   and then do a small amount of additional CSS styling once the new markup is in
   place.

 * Awesome, that worked. Thanks
 * One thing, I want the link/pic to be to the actual twitter page. I’ve inserted
   the code, but it keeps tacking on my website URL as well. Will tinker…
