Adding Icon/Icon Links

I was wondering how to add an Icon link to a webpage. I.e a picture of the twitter logo and once clicked it goes to your twitter page.

I'm specifically wondering how the logo is made like that, is it a custom image or what?

Thanks!

EDIT: Sorry to specify I mean I am wondering if there is a database of icons that you can use for links or if they are created by the person that designed the web, not how to link a picture.

I recommend Font Awesome icons. Yes, it's very simple to use them as a link. Simply embed the external CSS file into your HTML, and add the respective classes to your items. Try something like this for your twitter image:

<link href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.2.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<!-- This embeds the Font Awesome icons -->

<a href="https://twitter.com/myTwitterURL"><i class="fa fa-twitter-square fa-3x"></i></a>
