 To use a different image for your copy buttons, do the following:
 
-1. Place the image in the `_static/` folder of your site.
-2. Set the `copybutton_image_path` variable in your `conf.py` to be the

+1. Find the `<svg>` code for the image that you'd like to use.

 ## Modify the copy button's CSS
 
 You can style the CSS of the copy button however you'd like by writing your own CSS with your Sphinx build.
