Quick Question

I have a question for the more computer savvy of you. How does one go about making a blogger button? I have some buttons for the other sites that I visit, but I've no clue as to how or where they were made. How is it done?

Fanx! :)=

First, make an image that you'd want to use. (Or find a friend who knows what they're doing and is willing to help.)

Then, check out the coding from other people's buttons. It's usually the same.

>div style="border: 3px solid black; overflow: auto; height:
125px; width: 125px; color: black; background-color: white;"<

(at this point, you have to change a few of the symbols in this section so that your readers can copy the code. make all of the < into < and all of the > symbols into > )

(you can stop the changing here.)

</div></center>



The center tag just makes it in the middle of wherever you're posting it. You have to get your photo to the web, too. You can post it on blogger (I have a blog I use for my image and code testing before I put them up on my real blog.) Then change my links with yours. The link to my blog should be replaced with the one to yours, and the link to my image (the really long confusing looking link) should be replaced with the one to yours.


Not sure how well I've explained this, lemme know if you have any questions.

Oh my!!! I just realized I did some of my symbols improperly.


at the beginning of the div section it should be < and at the end it should be >

I'd be willing to help you with a button if you'd like to e-mail me. My e-mail is jupiter.athena.greenmoone@gmail.com. It's pretty simple, just difficult to explain in a comment :)
