I have been working on a button for hours. Silly, I know!
I found a free photo editor online. I use Power Point to created my buttons. Once created, I uploaded the image to imgur. I found a code online in which the image will need to be embedded.

You will need to fill in the red, blue, and green web addresses and titles. To add a button to your sidebar, you'll need to open your account options {design} and add the html gadget. Past code and save.

I've been wondering how to do this for a while. Thought Ladybug would tell us how. You best her to it. Looks great! Have to get a new computer before I can make mine.
Happy weekend! :)
I hope Ladybug makes a post on creating a button. She most likely has a cool program to enhance the graphics and visuals to go along with her instructions. Folks like me need the differentiation! HINT HINT, CLUE CLUE! Like a fool, I tried over and over to take my fabulous header she created and turn it into a button. My creativity is limited!

I guess I wasn't a fool. I played around with the image sizes until, SUCCESS! The image is a little smooshed but I am happy for now!!
You and I have too much in common!! I was struggling my way through making a button but bit the bullet and ordered one from The Cutest Blog on the Block. They whipped up a sassy one for me. It is a little large for now but I'm hoping they will shrink it down for me. Yours looks awesome!! Ladybug is too cool!

This post was very beneficial...thank you!!
I have the immage put in but I don't have that nice white box under it. Is this part of that code?

Great! how do you post a button on your blog?
When posting a button, you will need to select design in the top right corner of your blog. Add a HTML gadget. You will need to copy and paste the modified code from above to save on your sidebar.
If you are posting the grab button in a post, you will need to select the Edit HTML tab above your post (instead of compose).
You will have a modified code if you do not want the grab box. Let me know if that's the problem.
I am failing! I've been able to add the little box with the code, but no image. I don't know where in the code I'm making my mistake. Any ideas?
It took me awhile but I think I got it! Thank you for the help!
Andi - the problem I had was I had spaces where they shouldn't be. This was because I was cut and pasting. Hope you can get it.
