Making My Own Blog Button

I must admit I am not the best when it comes to HTML or doing creative things for websites.  One of my brothers is a graphic designer and my other brother works on computers for a living but I am not an expert in computers like they are.  I guess I got other genes.  Until now I didn't need to know about HTML and how to work a web-site but with my blog I have had to learn.
I have seen all the great buttons that other bloggers have on their sites, and I wanted one to.  Thus began my search on how to make one, because let's be honest I had no idea.  I found this great blog that shows you how.

She broke the process down into easy do able steps.  The first button I made didn't come out right it was very pixelated once I shrank it down.  I had to look for a better background that I could shrink down.  Well here is the final product, I hope you like it I am sure it will evolve in the coming months but not bad for my first try at this.
 Feel free to add my button to your blog.  Thanks

  1. Looks great! The sad thing is I do know a little HTML but I wouldn't know where to start when coming up with a blog button either. Good job!
