Doesn’t work in Mozilla either. I can’t run IE so I don’t get to play.

Excellent tool! If you want, you can use the color-palette script I wrote for http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/tools/color-blend/ . If not, there should be plenty more out there.

I’ve already employed ‘em.
Exactly what we were looking for. Thanks.
It shows how much fun you can have with so little. What a blast!
The left box text alignment wouldn’t work for me in IE 6.
Read my post in todays blog.
Tried to make the button longer, to accomodate a longer blog name, but no such luck. Is there a way to make it longer? Other than that, I love it.

This might be a stupid question, but in order to create one of these stickers with an image in the left box, would I just need to create a button with a blank left box, then add the image via Photoshop?
Adam Kalsey
You could do that, or simply make the whole button in Photoshop. The font used is Jason Kottke’s freeware Silkscreen from http://kottke.org/plus/type/silkscreen/index.html

it seems that the bill zeller site is very often down for bandwith exceed so your user interface does not work. Why wouldn’t you import the script so it will consume your bandwith ?
thanks for the button maker.. now i have my own button.. hehe.. http://fungkurs-network.net/images/linkbutton.gif
