Cool Buttons created "On The Fly"

Published: 8 Jan 2008 In: Web Tools

I can’t tell you how many times I have been designing a web site and come to a point where I say to myself, “I wish I had a really cool looking button for this section.”

So I start up Adobe Photoshop, of which my skills are somewhat lacking, and I attempt to create a stunning button. Hours later, I have a so-so graphic that looks like something a 3 year old drew with a crayon. Not my desired result and a major waste of time.

So I was very pleased to run across this fantastic online tool for creating very cool looking buttons. It takes very little effort on my part, but looks like I know my stuff when it comes to creating graphics.

In four easy steps, you too can have a Web 2.0 button that looks as stunning as the one shown here.

Step 1 – Select the size of your button with the handy slider bar

Step 2 – Select a color for your button

Step 3 – Optionally use a predefined, or uploaded, icon in the button and size it

Step 4 – Select your Text, font style, size and color

Click ‘Apply’ and there you have your newly created, stunning looking Web 2.0 button. Don’t like it? Then revisit any step and click ‘Apply’ again. When you like what you see, just download it to your computer by clicking the ‘Download’ button.

What could be easier? And better yet, what else can make me look like the web design professional I wish I was?
