Yay.. yesterday was my last class of the semester. I do have finals next week, but after looking at my grades I will be okay. I am right on the line between A and B in all of my classes. So a little bit of effort in every class can push me into straight A's. I have not had perfect straight A's in a few semesters, so this will be good.

Explain graphic buttons to me. I'm guessing that you mean buttons for HTTP based media, but I'm not sure if you mean buttons that are just graphics, or buttons that are for links.... which sort of buttons are you interested in producing?

You know how whenever you place code to make a button? It normally comes out with a simple grey button. Used for redirects, running subs etc. But some sites I have seen the person who created the sites made really nice looking buttons (I assume possibly just an image that they hyperlinked) but It is nicely shaded with almost a 3D touch to it. Something like that.

Well, there's two different ways of doing it. One way uses CSS and actually alters the hecadecimal RGB code used inherently by the browser. The other way is to actually make a 3-dimensional image and then use an < img > tag to display the button. If you're looking for the latter way, try Paint Shop Pro, and then once you've mastered using that program move on to Photoshop. If you're looking for the former way, check out any of the free CSS tutorials that the World Wide Web Consordium (W3C) has online.

Thanks. I am going to play around with Paintshop a little bit and see what I come up with.
