I'm trying to hard code social icons in 

projectname/app/design/frontend/projectname/default/template/page/html/footer.phtml

The html

<a src="../">facebook</a>

What is the correct way to link the img file in the theme skin folder

skin/frontend/projectName/default/images/webicons/socialIcon.png

The problem is how do I link from the app folder to the skin folder?

<img src="<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('images/webicons/socialicon.jpg') ?>" alt=""/>

OR

<img src="{{skin url=images/webicons/socialicon.jpg}}" alt="" />

This will help you to get the proper image from skin folder.

I hope this will help you.

img src = "<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('images/webicons/socialicon.jpg')?>"/>Facebook

The code above would get the URL of the file “your_image_name.jpg” placed in your skin directory. Code works for both front and backend purposes. Hope it helps.
