You want to add them to your navigation menu, or just a clickable logo of some type that will serve as the ink. If you want the logo type, just make a block for each logo, and make the image a hyperlink. Set the block to appear in the left side bar, and  you're done.

There's a link on your facebook page to your account. You'll want to copy the source code they give you, and click SOURCE in the block to paste the code into. Ian's suggestion of just saving their image and uploading it and linking it will work as well

Sorry Greg, my bad. I thought you had that stuff already and didn't know how to add it to your site.

But this would probably be easier than my idea. Good luck.

I right-clicked the facebook logo on my home page and clicked "copy shortcut".  Added the block on the left side and it works.  Only problem is, it is not a "clickable" Facebook logo, just a link.  How do I get the logo that when clicked, goes into the site?

 You want it to go to your profile on Facebook, correct? Go into edit that particular block. In the edit table click on the image and then click on image properties. A box will open with a few tabs, one of them allows you to make a hyperlink of the image. From there you can make the hyperlink to wherever  you need to. Make it the address for your Facebook profile.

Right click on the FB image first and save it, then upload it to your site. Then you can make it clickable.
