K2 social sharing buttons was created by Tancredi
Hi there,
got a question concerning sharing the articles, how can I get sharing buttons (Facebook, twitter, google+) to show to the left side of each article in a stylish fashion as seen on forbes for instance? see screenshot imgur.com/ZnSKpUg
Is it posible to add linkedin and youtube eventually?

Hello,
You need to override the item.php template of K2 and style it accordingly. Linkedin and Youtube can be added manually or you can use a service like addthis.
More on overrides can be found here: getk2.org/documentation/tutorials/174-templating-with-k2-and-the-concepts-of-sub-templates

Each button's code can be obtain at their site
developer.linkedin.com/plugins/share
developers.google.com/youtube/youtube_subscribe_button
You can also use www.addthis.com/
Now as for overriding the item.php is well commented and you can locate the block.
